In honor of Food Day, October 24, the Santa Fe Food Policy Council, Cooking with Kids, the Santa Fe Farmers’ Market Institute, and Farm to Table are co-hosting an event: Planning for Santa Fe’s Food Future. This evening will be a celebration of local food as well as an educational opportunity exploring the reality and potential of our regional foodshed.
