Evanston Food Exchange and Northwestern Dining/Sodexo are excited to announce the Gala for Growth II, where we will launch the E-Farm Initiative, aimed at expanding urban farming opportunities at Evanston Township High School, and celebrating Northwestern's REAL Foodprogram in the past year.
Our evening will include dining, drinks, and the opportunity to bid on terrific silent auction items. Featured speakers will be Christine Nye, Chief Horticulturist from the Shedd Aquarium and Eliza Fournier, Urban Youth Program Director of the Windy City Harvest Youth Farm of the Chicago Botanical Gardens.
