Created in partnership with the Center for Food Integrity, the workshop is part of SDSRPC’s Hungry for Truth initiative, which focuses on fostering conversations between farmers and consumers about how food is grown and raised in South Dakota.

“Engaging in conversations with consumers about how food is grown and raised is important, and we know it can present challenges,” said Marc Reiner, district 5, director, SDSRPC. “Our goal is to help farmers start a dialogue with consumers and have confidence in their message.”
