About this listen

Join Maureen and local food systems leader Dave Sokoll, Executive Director of the Forest City Food Collective, for an inspiring conversation on how local food can transform schools, families, and entire communities.

In this episode, we explore:

  • The evolution of farm-to-school programs
  • The real lives and challenges of small and mid-sized farmers
  • How food banks bring dignity through fresh, local produce
  • Why education is key to helping families use whole foods
  • How school nutrition professionals can make a lasting impact

Dave shares stories from the field, insights on procurement, and a behind-the-scenes look at what it truly takes to build a food system that works for everyone.
