Don’t miss this amazing opportunity to chat, and have good discussions about our Alberta Food System! See and hear what is going on across Alberta, meet and chat with other food systems movers and shakers, make suggestions and offer solutions to help make our Regional Alberta Food System better.

The 20 concurrent sessions, keynote, plenary, opening at Edmonton City Hall and ongoing facilitated Open Space and World Cafe’ discussions will help us dig deeply into the six interrelated regional food system themes: Integrated Food Systems, Production and Processing, Local Enterprises, Collective Buying Power, Citizen Engagement and Social Justice, Wasted Food and the Policy Realm.
