July 10 - CFG Follow-up Meeting

Capital RC&D, Healthy Adams County and Wilson College would like to extend an invitation to join us for a Closing the Food Gap follow-up meeting. This is also the first official meeting for a South Central PA Food Systems Alliance. The meeting will be held at the Camp Hill Giant Community Room on Tuesday, July 10 from 1:00 - 4:30 PM.

The purpose of this meeting is to maintain an ongoing collaboration and kick-off a series of quarterly meetings focused on issues impacting the south central PA food system, such as local food production, processing, marketing, and access in both institutional and consumer settings. 

Come early, grab a quick bite from the Camp Hill Giant Marketplace Café and join us for a networking luncheon from 12:00 - 12:45 PM. This is a great opportunity to reconnect with acquaintances from the Closing the Food Gap event and to make new connections.
