Upcoming VTH

July 13: Produce Safety Research

The produce industry often looks to the Center for Produce Safety for the latest in applied research, and rightfully so. But there's actually a lot of produce safety research going on. During this Virtual Town Hall, we'll give a recap of CPS highlights, a preview of what we're looking forward to learning more about at the International Association for Food Protection and Institute of Food Technologists annual meetings, and dive into other resources the produce industry should explore when looking to update practices based on science and research. The panel will feature representatives from USDA and other public-private partnerships to give attendees a view of the breadth of research available.

July 20: The 2022 White House Nutrition Conference: Our Fruit and Vegetable Moonshot?

After a multi-year bipartisan effort in Congress, this September the White House will host the first nutrition conference in more than 50 years. The goal is clear: eliminate hunger and reduce diet-related disease by 2030. But with nine out of ten Americans still not meeting fruit and vegetable consumption recommendations – how will we get there? Join us for this Virtual Town Hall as we take a deep dive into bold policy proposals for fruits and vegetables, including produce prescriptions, which could change our consumption trajectory by leveraging the power of the healthcare system.
