Food Secure Canada is hosting online discussions over the next week to gather input from Canadians on their priorities for A Food Policy for Canada.
The discussions are based on four themes covering the full spectrum of the food system: new farmers, food security, food entrepreneurs and public procurement.
The “New Farmers” discussion was held last week, but the other three are coming up this week. You can register through clicking on each of the following links:
