Real Food Training for Students

Students can register for upcoming training on advocating for local and organic food on campus

This summer, the Real Food Challenge (RFC) will hold five intensive trainings around the country.  At each, about 25 students and a small group of veteran real food organizers will converge for a powerful weekend of workshops, cooking, skill-shares, storytelling, strategizing, and all-around fun.  These retreats are geared toward students who want to take on (or strengthen an existing) real food campaign on their campus.


Register today for only $25.  The training is limited to 24-30 students.
