Farm to Institution Summit at UMass Amherst
April 7, 2015 - April 9, 2015
Are you working to increase the amount of local and regional food used by schools, colleges and health care facilities in the Northeast? You’re invited to the 2015 Farm to Institution Summit at UMass Amherst in Amherst, Massachusetts on April 7-9!
This first year conference will feature 50+ sessions, inspiring speakers, local tours, good food, live music, an exhibitor fair and more. Please join us – along with hundreds of other farm to institution advocates – for three exciting days of programming.
The Farm to Institution Summit is hosted by Farm to Institution New England in partnership with the National Farm to School Network, Health Care Without Harm and Farm to Institution New York State, and generously funded by the USDA, John Merck Fund and Henry P. Kendall Foundation along with other sponsors.
Register by March 10th to save $20 per day. Early bird registration costs $75 for one day, $140 for two days or $200 for three days. We’re excited to offer a special rate of only $40 per day for farmers, students and AmeriCorps service members. Full scholarships are also available.
