Food Literacy Project

Next week, join us for an inspiring guest speaker presentation featuring Erin Baumgartner, the Founder and CEO of Family Dinner, a business dedicated to redefining how we source and connect with our food.

Discover how technology is not just shaping—but revolutionizing—the way we grow, distribute, and consume food. From precision agriculture to supply chain optimization, data-driven insights are paving the way to a more sustainable, efficient, and equitable food system. Drawing from her experience leading Family Dinner, Erin will discuss how harnessing data can help stakeholders across the industry make informed decisions that promote environmental health, economic viability, and social well-being.
This event is open to all HUID holders. Registration is encouraged as seating is limited.

This Wednesday, join us for the Food Literacy Project Speaker Series: Indigenous New England Cuisine with Jordan Clark, Assistant Director, HUNAP

Throughout the month of November, Native American Heritage Month is observed widely to recognize the achievements and contributions of Native Americans. In fact, contemporary American food culture in New England is indebted to the indigenous people of this region. Before the arrival of Europeans, vegetables and legumes including corn, beans, squash, and pumpkins were planted and harvested seasonally. Blueberries, cranberries, crabapples, fish, shellfish, and deer were foraged and hunted. Stories and celebrations around food aligned with the seasons and brought people together. Many of New England’s most iconic dishes are rooted in Native American traditional cuisine.
Learn more about indigenous New England cuisine from Jordan Clark, Assistant Director at the Harvard University Native American Program.
