Participants will tour the UMaine campus and have the opportunity to enter a cooking challenge. During the Soup Happens! cooking challenge, teams of students will create soups using ingredients from the local Maine harvest. The students\u2019 creations will then be packaged to feed those in need in the Bangor and Orono areas.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to the Oct. 11 conference, attendees will be able to take part in a pre-conference gleaning session from 9 a.m.-noon Sept. 26. During the session, participants will pick potatoes to donate to area food banks and see the food system at ground level.<\/p>\n<p>Students can attend as individuals or in teams with a faculty mentor. Teams are also eligible to receive guidance on crafting a grant-funded project for their campus or school. Previous mini-grants have funded school and campus pantries, food security studies and campus community gardens. Grant funding requires attendance at the conference.<\/p>\n<p>The conference is free and meals are included. Registration is required by Oct. 6, as space is limited. All registrants will receive a separate email regarding the Sept. 26, pre-conference gleaning event and the cooking challenge.<\/p>\n<p>To register, click&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/extension.umaine.edu\/hunger-dialogue\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">here.<\/a>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The one-day conference, sponsored by University of Maine Cooperative Extension, the Maine Campus Compact, Sodexo and the University Credit Union, is designed to challenge students and staff from all areas [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":53,"featured_media":0,"template":"","meta":{"_kad_blocks_custom_css":"","_kad_blocks_head_custom_js":"","_kad_blocks_body_custom_js":"","_kad_blocks_footer_custom_js":"","_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"_tribe_events_status":"","_tribe_events_status_reason":"","_tribe_events_is_hybrid":"","_tribe_events_is_virtual":"","_tribe_events_virtual_video_source":"","_tribe_events_virtual_embed_video":"","_tribe_events_virtual_linked_button_text":"","_tribe_events_virtual_linked_button":"","_tribe_events_virtual_show_embed_at":"","_tribe_events_virtual_show_embed_to":[],"_tribe_events_virtual_show_on_event":"","_tribe_events_virtual_show_on_views":"","_tribe_events_virtual_url":"","footnotes":""},"tags":[],"tribe_events_cat":[],"class_list":["post-13077","tribe_events","type-tribe_events","status-publish","hentry"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.2 -
