NFSN Coffee Chat: Growing Racial Equity & Food Justice With School Gardens

When:  Apr 20, 2021 from 03:00:00 PM to 04:00:00 PM (ET)

April is National Garden Month! School gardens are an integral part of farm to school and ECE and offer meaningful opportunities to engage youth in both learning about and contributing to racial equity and justice in the food system. Join National Farm to School Network on Tuesday, April 20 at 3 pm ET for a Coffee Chat on Facebook Live with Krystal Oriadha (National Farm to School Network, Senior Director of Programs & Policy), Betti Wiggins (Houston Independent School District, Officer of Nutrition Services), and Dorothy Grady-Scarbrough (Mississippi Farm to School Network Co-Director and Founder of Mississippians Engaged in Greener Agriculture (MEGA)), to hear their experiences, ideas, and visions for how gardening with youth can advance racial equity and food sovereignty in our communities. RSVP here to join live or watch the recording later.
