Food for thought with the Sioux Falls Urban Food Forum

This interview originally aired on In the Moment on SDPB Radio.

At the Sioux Falls Urban Food Forum, growers and policy makers are getting together to talk about food.

Stephanie Peterson, a local producer from Fruit of the Coop, Eric Weber, CEO of the Union Gospel Mission, and Jordan Deffenbaugh, organizer of the forum, join In the Moment to preview the discussion.

They break down South Dakota's food ecosystem and why there are so many food deserts throughout the state.

The Sioux Falls Urban Food Forum takes place July 26 to 27 at the Union Gospel Mission Thrift Store. The morning sessions last from 9 to 11 a.m. The afternoon sessions are from 2 to 4 p.m.
