Fast food 3.0 — “Consumers want something else from food. Taste, transparency and values matter! It’s not the writing on the wall but living the mission.” - Jonathan Neman, co-founder @sweetgreen #GFF19 #WSJFood

[Louisa Burwood-T @iamlbt]

"Innovations we're working on will allow us to be in more places/accessible to all communities & cheaper" - CEO @sweetgreen e.g. outposts in food deserts & places where co can't afford a sweetgreen store. They're also educating via Sweetgreen in schools #WSJFOOD

[Cargill @Cargill]

"What concerns us most is the impact on American farmers. We are working with them to build resilience, find new markets and technology to weather the storm long-term, while we see demand grow again.” – Cargill’s Ruth Kimmelshue on disruptions to the ag supply chain. #WSJFood

So many good pieces of insight, reflection, advice and wisdom at today’s #WSJFOOD Global Food Forum.

[Suzy Friedman @FriedmanSuzy]

.@jacobbunge asks great question, “How do you meet/balance demands of farmers and environmental groups?” Response: We welcome all perspectives, even when they’re tough to hear because it makes us better. #WSJfood

Ruth Kimmelshue, SVP at Cargill: It’s important for farms and forests to coexist as we feed a growing population while staying within planetary boundaries. #WSJfood

[S2G Investments @S2Ginvestments]

Sustainability itself is not enough — we must also help the growers make more money. #GFF19 #WSJFood

[Suzy Friedman @FriedmanSuzy]

The challenges of water (use and quality) play out locally, says Ertharin Cousin, @ChicagoCouncil distinguished fellow #WSJFood

[Suzy Friedman @FriedmanSuzy]

Excited to be @WSJ’s Global Food Forum. @kenbrown12, @seed2growth and @DCVC discuss VC investments in ag tech. #WSJFood

[Hannah Thompson-Weeman @BuckeyeHannah]

Shout out to the @WSJ for including several farmers on the agenda at #WSJFood. Too often farmers aren’t included in discussions about the future of food - glad to see @JenETLC, @dairysteward and @MNFarmLiving taking a seat at the table today.

[Abe Hughes @PrecisionAbe]

Kiersten Stead of DCVC Bio and Sanjeev Krishna’s of S2G Ventures talking about Silicon Valley’s Green Thumb and citing specifically auto steer products (like ⁦@Trimble_Ag⁩ Autopilot) as big tech successes farmers really adopted quickly at the #WSJFOOD

"Climate-smart ag stays above the partisan fray because... it's good for farmers, downstream neighbors and anyone who wants to eat high-quality, affordable food." Check out @davidfesta's op-ed about bipartisan state-level leadership on climate resilience. https://t.co/MDOFQqfmOu
