Joan and I are exhibiting at the Choices conference in Dearborn. We have two new hits.
First, we are displaying and selling our 13" X 20" double-sided Garden Banners. This is a new size for us and people are really responding to having a beautiful banner that is small enough to place in their yard.
Second, we unveiled a sneak peak of the Michigan Farm To School Website. The C.S. Mott Group for Sustainable Food Systems at Michigan State University contracted with us to develop a guide and website. We have worked with C.S Mott to create an appealing easy to use website that provides step-by-step instructions on how to incorporate farm fresh food into school meal programs.
Chris has joined us for the conference and spent part of the day in a photo-shoot with The Henry Ford Executive Chef Nick Seccia. Chris showed us a few of the images on her camera and we are really excited about them. We plan on using them in a guide we are working on with the Food System Economic Partnership (FSEP), C.S Mott, and the Michigan Department of Agriculture (MDA). The guide is about serving local food in institutional settings.
Thats all for now, but we will be back tomorrow with news about the USDA FNS Midwest Region Cross Program Collaboration Conference (whew!).
