James Hathaway, Department of Geography, Slippery Rock University, spoke on "Putting the Local Food Systems in the Pittsburg, Pennsylvania Region in Perspective."
The discussion was on local food systems in the Pittsburgh region. Information shows how Pittsburgh's food systems have performed in recent years and how they compare to the local food systems of other USA cities both in older industrial regions and nonindustrial regions.
The presentation was part of the Local Food Systems Conference held at the Toledo Hilton. The conference aimed to bring together both academics and practitioners to share their knowledge, experience, and expertise with regard to developing and maintaining local food systems in old industrial regions.
