9am – 12pm Central Time

Join the conversation towards a Winnipeg food strategy

Food is a connecting point, it impacts the way we live, work and play. From our local economy and community-building, to healthy citizens and a greener environment, food touches all sectors. Cities across Canada are recognizing these linkages and realizing the enormous potential for food to transform a city, through thoughtful consideration and planning.

Now it’s Winnipeg’s turn. Food Matters Manitoba, the Canadian CED Network – Manitoba and MAFRA are hosting a multi-stakeholder event to discuss the potential of a Winnipeg Food Strategy and how it could transform our city. Given your background and perspective, we think you would be a great addition to this discussion. Please join us February 20th, 2015 from 9am – 12pm at Convocation Hall, University of Winnipeg. A local Manitoba lunch to follow the event.

If you plan to attend, please RSVP to Kelsey Evans at kelsey at foodmattersmanitoba.ca or (204) 943-0822 ext. 201
