CLICK HERE FOR FAST DOWNLOAD
The second issue of Harvest Foodservice Journal, the newsletter devoted to sustainability issues within the foodservice industry, is now available for download. Reaction for the inaugural issue was great, and we thank all of you who took the time to read and give us feedback. Much is being written about sustainability of late, with Harvest Foodservice Journal, we try to reach beyond common themes. Thank you for your support. (For large, high-res version, click here.)
And I’ve stated before, if you like what you read, or know someone else that would be interested in the topics, please pass along this link for them to download a copy. Click here if you want a fat, High-Res file for pretty printing.
In this second issue:
• A Minnesota non-profit organization trains immigrant farmers Certified Organic techniques and links them to wholesale markets.
• Chef and commentator Jonathan Locke pokes a little loving fun at the local foods movement (despite being a passionate adherent).
• Dateline Chicago: The first International Foodservice Sustainability Symposium brought together heavyweight luminaries and industry specialists to connect global food issues with local businesses.
• A National Farm To School Network study of four school districts showed that local sourcing efforts affect more than just students.
• GroOrganic: An organic garden franchise? Really? Yes.
Again, we need people to download their own copies. As I stated before (broken record, anyone?) our publishing model relies on us counting the number of downloads.
We don’t track you, or capture any information. We just need ticks on the counter. So, please download a copy, and pass along the link. Questions, comments, ideas or scathing rebuttals, you know where to find me.

I do hope that “parents would come into the schools to see what their children were eating”, as I know I was on my own during my High School Days. As sad as it was, we had Taco Bell available. REALLY nice to see the farm-to-school programs on the rise!
