FoodChain Staff and Board Retreat

This October, we are embarking on a full staff and board retreat: creating a creative and thoughtful space for future visioning and strategic planning with FoodChain's amazingly impactful programming. The goals of this retreat are: celebration and rest for the good work of the past year, restoration and creativity, staff and board bonding and togetherness, diggin more deeply and thoughtfully into our current programs and performing a collaborative SWOT analysis for the very near future of opening our upcoming grocery space! 

All this hard work and planning needs nourishing fuel! So we are asking for the Board to help sponsor FoodChain making this completely accessible to staff by covering room and board. We will be staying at the Cumberland Falls State Resort Park, supporting long time chef partner and incredible food system activist, Kristin Smith, by dining in her restaurant, The Wrigley, and paying for art and restorative yoga with Monet to support staff, and engaging a local photographer to capture some images of the journey to share with staff and our supporters. We understand that not everyone can support financially, so we encourage everyone to attend, no matter their contribution! We really appreciate any financial contribution to this effort, if you are able and we look forward to spending retreat time together.
