Rockefeller Foundation’s Focus on Food Waste Includes Food Summit and Pop-up at Blue Hill Restaurant Featuring Chef Dan Barber’s WastED Initiative
Food Tank (foodtank.com), in partnership with The Fink Family Foundation and Blue Hill Restaurant, will be hosting a special intimate dinner discussion on September 13, 2017, at 7:30pm with leading food system thinkers such as Ruth Reichl, Sam Kass, Danielle Nierenberg, Stephanie Strom, David Barber, Dan Barber, and many more around solutions to food waste.
The evening will feature a special menu inspired by Chef Dan Barber’s wastED initiative, a pop-up devoted to the theme of re-using foods that would otherwise be wasted. wastED is a community of chefs, farmers, fishermen, distributors, processors, designers, and retailers. They are working together to reconceive “waste” that occurs at every link in the food chain by creating something delicious out of the ignored or un-coveted and inspiring new applications in our food system. . .
