Join Mo McGonagle, Director of the Roanoke Foodshed Network (RFN), for a look at how RFN has evolved over the past six years—its structure, governance model, and collaborative approach to building a more equitable, resilient food and farming system across the Roanoke region.
The session will also feature RFN's newest initiative, the Roanoke Region Food & Farm Trail—a community-driven guide to the farms, flavors, and stories of a seven-county, two-city region, connecting residents and visitors to local farms and food businesses through a dynamic website, on-the-ground experiences, and multimedia storytelling.
You'll gain insight into how this work has strengthened regional partnerships, expanded community engagement, and opened new pathways for diversified local and regional funding.
