This event brought together food leaders from across North York, including those from community gardens farms, food security advocates, food programs leads from settlement and health organizations, grassroot organizations, community kitchens, food banks, city staff, and many more. This year’s event focused on the food crises, food systems, and long term strategies, as well as forming strong relationships and connections between the food leaders of North York.
