| Farm to Table to Kid: Must-see webcast! |
 On May 22, The Civic League was honored to join The Arthur M. Blank Family Foundation and Georgia Organics in presenting Farm to Table to Kid: Increasing Access to Healthy and Affordable Food, an expert panel discussion on innovative ways of providing schoolchildren and families in Georgia with greater access to healthy local foods.This energetic and enlightening discussion featured Food Network Chef Alton Brown, Yael Lehmann of The Food Trust and Anthony Geraci of the Baltimore City Schools, and we urge you to make time to watch it.
The Arthur M. Blank Family Foundation and its affiliated fund, the Atlanta Falcons Youth Foundation, have invested more than $16 million since 2002 to improve youth fitness in Georgia. Currently, the Atlanta Falcons Youth Foundation focuses on five neighborhoods designated as Falcons Fitness Zones, where it is serving 10,000 kids at nearly 50 sites. Additional partner organizations for this event were Captain Planet Foundation, Peachtree Road Farmers Market, Atlanta Local Food Initiative, Slow Food Atlanta, Wholesome Wave Foundation, Atlanta Development Authority, Georgia Children's Health Alliance, Multicast Media, Georgia Public Broadcasting, Atlanta Community Food Bank, the Alliance for a Healthier Generation and the Georgia PTA.
