Pre-conference activities such as tours and workshops will take place on April 5th. We expect 500-600 attendees and invite you to be a part of this growing network.     

The 2017 New England Farm to Institution Summit will gather farmers, food service operators, advocates, administrators, elected officials and others dedicated to cultivating the power of New England institutions to develop an equitable and resilient food system. The #F2ISummit is designed to inspire change and energize participants through sharing best practices and innovative strategies; enhance network capacity through skill building; and strengthen our collective impact by engaging leaders and policymakers in shared problem-solving.
