January Event: Organic/Local Institutional Foods

Location: REI, 750 W. American Blvd, Bloomington, MN 55420

You're not alone in wanting to have local and organic foods at conferences, institutions, and large cafeterias.  But finding ample, reliable sources of ingredients and reducing waste can be a challenge.  Learn about how companies are making mass-produced food healthier as well as composting, all while meeting the demands of serving large numbers of clients, on a strict budget, while trying to reduce their carbon footprint. The challenges continue but efforts by individuals and groups are pushing the boundaries of how we think about mass-produced food.  

A local/organic lunch will be provided by Mississippi Market!

Learn all about this electronic recycling company with a discussion and tour around the Asset Recovery facility. With the number of electronic devices being created each year, this part of the waste stream is growing.
