University hosts Food Meet 2010 in Hoover Jan. 20

Want to learn more about making healthy food choices?

Beginning at 7 p.m. Wednesday, Jan. 20, the university invites the community to Food Meet 2010 in the Hoover Academic Building, where attendees can learn about sustainable food, meet local farmers and taste healthy, delicious food from community businesses committed to sustainable, local products. In addition, segments of the recent film Food, Inc. will be shown. The film takes a startling look at what’s happening to our food before it lands on our plate.

Great local food – everything from cupcakes and chocolate to fresh goat cheese – will be available to sample. There will also be many booths where guest vendors and organizations will be demonstrating ways to grow, buy and prepare healthy food.

A $2 admission will go to organizations seeking to promote local, ethical, healthy and delicious ways of eating. More information and the R.S.V.P. are available at georgefox.edu/green/food-meet-2010. Questions? Contact Corey Beals at ext. 2661 or cbeals@georgefox.edu.
