Successful Turnout at the Second Food Policy Summit

The Second Food Policy Summit turned out to be a great success.  The event exceeded attendance expectations.  Over 200 people came for the Just Lead/Info Fair and Public Forum which doubled our attendance from the first Summit.

The idea of food awareness is slowly spreading across the city.  Approximately 40 attendees were at the Policymaker Summit, 50 attendees at the Workshop, and about 60 people at the research table.
