A few months ago, in a cluttered meeting room on the second floor of the Park Slope Food Coop, a group of coop members started talking about the idea of having a community-wide food conference on food politics, and food action, in Brooklyn. Out of those early conversations has sprung one of the most exciting and creative conferences about food that I’ve heard about in a long time.
Hope to see you there!
We wanted to share an e-mail from one of the volunteer organizers, Winton, who’s heading up the social networking outlets of the upcoming Brooklyn Food Conference:
Hi All,

Please feel free to send me feedback and if you want to help manage content that would be great also. My information is listed as well in case you need to reach me. Looking forward to interacting with you all.
