Overview: H. Michael Simmons has led public meetings to discuss community
food security in Bloomington, Ind. Simmons will lead a discussion with
Indianapolis residents, providing updates on his work, in addition to
providing information on food policy initiatives in Canada. Following will
be a discussion on how these models might be adapted to Indianapolis. By
inviting Simmons to Indianapolis, we can determine if enough interest
exists to begin working toward community and regional food security in
central Indiana.
