Real Food, Real Talk: Community Conversations on Local Food

You're invited to a series of free, in-person gatherings hosted by Central Montana Food Hub (CMFH) to talk about the future of local food in our region.

Join us for an evening of meaningful conversation, connection, and vision casting. Whether you grow food, eat food, or care about how food gets to our tables, these events are for you.

Hosted by Shauna Eagleton, Owner/Manager of CMFH, each evening will include:

  • A behind-the-scenes look at how CMFH connects producers and eaters

  • A glimpse into our 2, 5, and 10-year plans for food hub facility growth

  • Big-picture insights on building a statewide local food network

  • An open, welcoming space to share your needs, hopes, and ideas

This is your chance to ask questions, dream big, and meet others who care about strengthening local food systems in Montana.
