Heartening to see someone fight to serve fresh fruit and veg in school amongst horrendous challenges (including Gov requirements). Inside one Georgia school district’s battle to serve healthy, homemade food despite shortages and soaring prices https://t.co/zwgYWzUhPB

What a treat ... supper while listening to the amazing @BrendaCDavis hosted by @rohinibajekal with this evening’s @plantbasedhpuk zoom on prevention, treatment and remission of #type2diabetes

[Lynette Brooks Homer @lynettebrooks]

Just when I thought I'd had enough of Zoom, along came @FoodPowerUK and #FoodPowerFest An amazing 4 days of sharing stories of the potential of food to transform community engagement, resilience, self-determination and nutrition! Thanks to all those involved, including funders.
