EAT THINK DRINK: Farm to Institution – A Memorable Evening
Our recent EAT THINK DRINK event, “Farm to Institution: Scaling Ag to Schools, Hospitals, and More,” was a fantastic success! With a great turnout of thought leaders, industry professionals, and community members, the evening was both insightful and enjoyable.
Keynote speaker Paula Daniels captivated the audience with her insights on sustainable, equitable food systems through institutional purchasing. The engaging panel discussion, moderated by Jayson Watts of Mahi Pono, featured valuable contributions from Randolph Moore (Hawaii Department of Education), Christa Collins (Flik808), and Michael Robinson (Hawai‘i Pacific Health) on integrating local agriculture into institutional supply chains.
We’re grateful to everyone who joined us for this important conversation on the future of Hawaii’s food systems. Stay tuned for a recording of the event, which will be available soon!
