Northwest Ohio's 
    Eating Local Foods Network (ELF) is a network of people in the greater Northwest Ohio area promoting a sustainable, local food system through education that improves quality of life and protects the environment. The network was initiated by Northwest State Community College as part of its Education for Sustainability Program.


    Next ELF Network Meeting
    Tuesday, Feb. 14, 2012
    6:30 PM

    Location: Northwest State Community College, McDougle Room (within the College Library).  

    (2nd Tuesday of  Every  Month)
    Stay tuned for notes from January meeting.  

    At the start of the New Year, ELF is looking to define goals for the coming year that will connect growers and everybody else who eats. We are looking to mobilize leadership around those goals. The meeting is scheduled for Tuesday January 10th, at 6:30 PM and will be held at Northwest State Community College.  (Specific room will be announced ASAP).   
     
    This will be an important meeting for those seeking to build a local food system in our corner of the State.   We'll review what has been accomplished and shape a vision of what ELF can and should do in 2012 and beyond.  

    Please encourage others to attend, and feel free to forward this email.  This invite is being sent to over 200 email addresses on the ELF list because more involvement is needed to keep any momentum going.

    This joint effort will help build a more sustainable, local food system, improve quality of life and protects the environment, which is the ELF Network’s mission.

    We hope you have noticed the great abundance of wonderful food products we have available to us in the Northwest Ohio region. We have a lot to celebrate when we choose local, sustainable foods!

    You can have this wonderful food in your own kitchen at home as well. The local producers who have provided this food can be contacted for your own purchase.

    You can also join in our efforts to build more sustainable communities by logging onto our website: www.eatinglocalfoods.org, reading about upcoming events, finding out about other local producers, and helping continue to spread the word. Thank you!
