Katie’s interview on the Food Systems Friday webinar with Prescott College
“I greatly appreciated your presentation yesterday. I tend to not enjoy talks by people talking about food because I find so often they’re talking from a 30,000 foot level and don’t really seem to understand the people they are talking about. You were different. I thought you were very insightful.”
- Don Milholin, Executive Director/President, Out of the Garden Project
“We were interested in finding a webinar speaker with vast experience in addressing head-on the multi-faceted public health concern of food insecurity. Katie Martin’s presentation was so compelling, so well received and so full of helpful resources and guidance that our group was inspired to incorporate the SWAP program in a choice-based pantry. We trained members of the community to teach the SWAP program to other pantry clients. We are so grateful for the support of Katie for assisting us in getting started!”
