About the Event
Join us for our First Friday Lunch on September 4, 2020, from 11:15 AM to 12:30 PM! We have quite a line-up of speakers for you this month all working to address food insecurity in Brunswick:
Bryan Thompson, former Brunswick Mayor and currently serving as the Development Coordinator Nunnally House will be joining us to share information on the concept and evolution of the Clean Your Plate Rx Culinary Garden at Nunnally House.
Dr. Danielle Shelton, board-certified family medicine physician and co-founder of local non-profit Clean Your Plate Rx and will discuss “Food as Medicine.”
Mathew Hill, Executive Director of the Brunswick Downtown Development Authority will speak on the expansion plans for the Downtown Farmers Market, First Friday Farmers Market, and Wholesome Wave Georgia that will allow SNAP card recipients to purchase fresh vegetables from the Farmers Market.
