Just a quick post to let you all know that the 2nd Virginia Food Security Summit is going on today in Charlottesville. The Virginia Food System Council (the 501(c)3 that was formed after the first summit in 2007) has put together a Farm to Table plan (see a draft of the plan here), which looks at the local food system through the rich farming heritage of Virginia, and opportunities provided by the growing demand for local products. The summit is a chance for growers, policy makers, chefs and consumers to discuss the the plan and its implications for the state.
I am attending, so if there is anything you'd like for me to find out about local food on a state level, you can email me here, and I will certainly try.
