From June 7 - 10, 2022, the Nourish Anchor Cohort gathered for the first time in person in Montréal, Québec. Over a series of workshops, visits to a farm, hospital kitchen, and various community food initiatives, participants saw, learned from, and tasted what it’s like when health care and community comes together to strengthen food security.
