Cultivate + Connect: A Celebration of Our Regional Food System
September 19, 2024 @ 5:00 pm - 8:00 pm

Join Green Umbrella for an evening of connection, storytelling, and celebration of our region’s food system champions.
Resilient and equitable food systems are the foundation of a thriving community. For 14 years, we’ve been bringing stakeholders together from across the food system to collaborate and strengthen food production, distribution, and access – farmers, institutions, restaurants, grocery stores, farmers markets, schools, chefs, food rescuers, advocates, volunteers, and of course, consumers!
Our community has achieved so much – and we’re thrilled to host this new event to bring everyone together, highlight the incredible work of our partners and community leaders who work tirelessly to cultivate connections and resources, educate decision makers, eliminate food deserts, support local farmers, create community orchards, and get fresh, local food into our schools and neighborhoods.
The evening will feature delicious food from a variety of local businesses and each attendee will receive two drink tickets. Thank you to Urban Artifact for hosting us in their beautiful event space, The Reliquary.
All proceeds and donations will support Green Umbrellaโs food system programs – theย Greater Cincinnati Regional Food Policy Councilย and theย Common Orchard Project. If you are unable to attend, you can support this important work with a charitable contribution atย https://greenumbrella.org/donate
