Babson Food Days and Community Table

Babson Food Days was about surfacing bite-sized opportunities for action and learning around food – and celebrating the tremendous talent and desire for food-system innovation that lives right here at Babson and around the world. Babson has most certainly arrived on the food-entrepreneurship scene. Share your photos from the event on our Facebook Page.

But Food Days was only the beginning. We hope that you will continue to come to our table, break bread and shape ideas with us, and look for your entrepreneurial paths into making a difference in food. 

Food Sol Community Table:Tuesdays, Noon - 1:30 p.m. For more information, contact Rachel Greenberger.
