The Summit takes place on the heels of the 52nd Annual Agricultural and Food Fair, hosted by the Virgin Islands Department of Agriculture, on Saturday, February 17th to Monday, February 19th.
The Island Food Systems Summit seeks to amplify and center the voices and experiences of Virgin Islands farmers, front line workers, and allies as we aim to: 1) to bring awareness, understanding and networking across the various programs and projects; 2) to increase knowledge and relationships across diverse funding providers; 3) to increase opportunities to center front line workers to engage in important conversations that impact agriculture and the environment; and 4) to determine opportunities for collaboration across the Caribbean.
