Food Lounge: the food hub of the week

The “Food Lounge” is the information hub, meeting space, creativity zone, resource fair, and town hall throughout the Vermont Food Summit. It will be in the Rosa Parks room on the first floor of the Davis Center (next to Brennan’s) and will be open from 9am-3pm from Monday to Thursday. The Food Lounge will post informal discussions, speakers, provide resources related to food and agriculture, display student arts and projects, and will be the check in point to find out everything that is going on throughout the entire week. There will always be a Food Summit rep there to answer any questions and tell you what is happening!

Lunchtime Discussions… Monday through Thursday at Noon in the Food Lounge. Each day will have a lecture and discussion led by a university professor that does research related to food. Everyone is invited to come and bring a lunch in a reusable container…
(compared to the traditional brown bagged lunch series!)

Open Space Conversations
The Food Lounge will be an open space for students, faculty, and staff to use as a meeting place for discussions around food. There will be a circle of couches and people can reserve the space to have conversations around food.

Real Food Challenge of the Day!
Make sure to stop by the Food Lounge everyday to find out what the Real Food Challenge of the day is! There will also be games, salvager hunts, and trivia related to food, and of course, there will be prizes for the winners!

AND…

Stop by the resource table for information about food and agriculture at UVM, Burlington, and around the country!

Also, this is the place you will want to go to if you want to sign up for the “take our options” or are presenting at an event.
