We all have to eat. But there is much more to that burger, lobster, bowl of cereal, gallon of milk, or head of lettuce than meets the eye. What we eat, how we eat, how much we eat, and even where we eat has major social, economic, ecological, and health impacts. Climate change, minimum wage, immigration, water rights, land use, indigenous peoples’ sovereignty, chemical production, small business viability, community infrastructure and even more are all wrapped up in the food that ends up on our plates.

Whether you are an eater or you catch, grow, raise, process, deliver, and/or serve the food we eat, food is your business.

On November 5th, the Food Solutions Forum will connect these farmers, fishermen, food workers, small business owners and the public with presidential candidates as we discuss the challenges and opportunities facing our local food producers.

Please join at University of New Hampshire – Durham as they engage presidential candidates from across the political spectrum on how these small business owners can partner with state and federal governments to prosper, expand their markets and hire more people, while maintaining the unique character that is New Hampshire.
