Past, Present, and Future: School Lunch & Farm to School

Explore the last 100 years of school food, and watch how the history of school lunch can provide context for bringing Farm to School to life in your cafeterias. Review current policies in place to support Farm to School work and hear from Guy Koppe, a Massachusetts based food service director who has significant experience in the school food field, and has built robust farm to school programs within several different school food environments. Not a food service director? This workshop is open to anyone who is interested in learning more about school food and how to become an advocate for farm to school programs in their community.

Presenters:

Charissa Zapata-Walker, Program Manager, Massachusetts Farm to School
Lisa Damon, Co-Director, Massachusetts Farm To School
Guy Koppe, Food Service Director, Bridge Boston Charter School
