GROWING THE U: University of MN Real Food Retreat 
Student leaders, and not YET student leaders, are invited to Growing the U: The University of Minnesota System Uniting for Real Food -- a retreat to cultivate campaigns & projects to further campus commitments to community-based, resilient, fair food systems.

April 4-6
University of Minnesota - Duluth

Growing the U will be an opportunity to build community with student leaders from throughout the University of Minnesota system, cultivate a vision & plan for commitments to sustainability & justice in our campus & community food systems, and develop our leadership & organizing skills to enact our plans.

In addition to sharing meals and exploring the Duluth-area food system together, the retreat will include workshops and open time to explore:

• challenges & opportunities in campus food systems
  
• power, privilege, and oppression in the food system
• strategic campaign-planning
  
• group dynamics & facilitation
• University of Minnesota system-wide network-building
  
• The Real Food Calculator and Campus Commitment from the national Real Food Challenge student network

REGISTER NOW to reserve your spot! Registration costs only $20 for all food, housing, meeting space, and programming for the weekend.
