BINGHAMTON — The nonprofit Rural Health Network of South Central New York will host the Growing Health 2012 program at the Riverwalk Hotel & Conference Center in Binghamton Oct. 16-17.
The event brings together people from throughout the region and state to discuss issues such as developing a more local/regional food system and boosting the use of New York State agricultural and food products to improve health.
The first day of the event will be the New York State Healthy Farms, Healthy People Meeting. Participants from throughout the state will register by region and spend the day considering four critical issues: the state’s agricultural capacity and infrastructure; individual and consumer access to NYS food products; business and institutional access to NYS food products; and state food coalitions, networks, and collaborations.
