Session: Session 1

Start / End: 09:00 AM - 10:15 AM Fri

Presenters:

The idea isn’t new. Farmers have always known that Organic food grown sustainably on well stewarded land supports ecological, human, and community health. The Food Is Medicine (FIM) movement is gaining momentum across the country! Programs rooted in this knowledge have emerged and are expanding. This session will provide a background to the movement, what FIM programs look like and how they work, new funding, and supporting policies, as well as bring together thought-leaders, innovators and implementors for a discussion on needs and opportunities to engage the movement, build markets and provide food for healthy outcomes.
