Schools are where kids form relationships with food that can last a lifetime. Today, we’re calling on our FoodCorps friends to support food education and increased access to school meals. Spread the joy of food and give today at https://t.co/qQtdgdtgmL. #GivingTuesday

[Cooperative Development Institute (CDI) @coopdevinst]

It's #GivingTuesday! Let's turn this co-op moment into a movement! For example, CDI has been working with working mothers from #LewistonME's many immigrant communities to create day care co-ops. We'd like to see this model grow throughout our region. https://t.co/DErUNzOyrN

Great panel on how public/private partnership increase access to local, healthy food. Co-ops helped bring farmers together to enable this supply chain. Chuck Conner ⁦@FarmerCoop⁩ leading the conversation. #WHConfHungerNutrition ⁦@NCBACLUSA⁩ #gocoop

U.S. farmers and ranchers increasingly depend on off-farm jobs and income, revealing the growing economic interconnection of rural communities and surrounding cities. Read the CoBank Knowledge Exchange/University of Missouri report: https://t.co/PDL3D3WPNh
