interview with Mickki Langston

The 3rd annual Local Food Summit is March 2-3 in Denver.  Mickki Langston, executive director of the Mile High Business Alliance, visited “First Take with Lando and Chavis to describe the growing momentum behind the local food movement.

“The intention is to help build relationships between people who are working inside the food economy all the time,” said Langston.  ”Food is the foundation of our community, and it’s delicious!”

More than 50 organizations have joined with the Mile High Business Alliance to produce this year’s event at the campus of Johnson and Wales University at Montview and Quebec.   Related events include a Community Supported Agriculture fair (March 2), open to the public.  The summit will also screen the documentary “Truck Farm” on Monday, March 2, 2015 at the Sie Film Center on E. Colfax Ave.
