Help Plan the Conferences

If you live in the Wilmington, Asheville, or Triad areas of North Carolina, we need you! We need leaders to plan and organize the 2011 conferences. If you'd like to find ways to connect hunger relief, local farms, and faith communities in your region and inspire others to do the same, contact Claire Hermann and get more information about joining a regional planning committee.

About Us

Come to the Table is an on-going project that explores the connections between food security, faith and farms.

We include lay leaders and ministers, nonprofits, government officials and individuals.

We work together as people of faith to create a food system that that feeds our communities, supports farmers and farmworkers, and fosters a connection to the land.

Come to the Table is a project of the Rural Life Committee of the North Carolina Council of Churches with support from the Duke Endowment.
