We Want You!

We are inviting you to become a part of a local food policy council. We are looking for community members who have an interest in such issues as nutrition, agriculture, food distribution, hunger, and food access to become a part of this exciting initiative. The date of our first meeting is February 20, 2007 at 12:00 noon, here at our office at 330 South 36th Street in Quincy, IL. A light lunch will be served. You can read more about local food policy councils in our winter edition of Local Flavors. If interested, please call 217-223-8380 or email Brenda at derrickb@uiuc.edu.
