Healthy food systems are the foundation for healthy lives, communities, economies and ecosystems. In order to build a future for Melbourne in which we can all thrive, we need a food system that is sustainable, resilient and equitable.

Join world-leading environmental designer, ecological educator and writer, David Holmgren, and farmers, retailers, restauranteurs, growers and community advocates from around Melbourne and across Victoria, coming together to explore how we can build a better food system by 'going local'.

At Sustainable & Fair Food: Going Local, you'll hear why building a local food economy is good for the environment, farmers, community, your weekly food bill and our future. You'll get to share what 'going local' means for you, why you think it's important, and how City of Melbourne might help us all to 'go local'. You'll also get to cocreate a vision for City of Melbourne about what 'going locall' might look like for producers, retailers, restauranteurs, community and government in and around Melbourne.

This is an opportunity to help shape Melbourne's future.
