Sustainable Food Purchasing Policy Guide Now Available
November 30, 2007
A helpful tool  for parties interested in food system change -
The Association for the Advancement of Sustainability in Higher Education (AASHE) Thursday said it has completed its Guide to Developing a Sustainable Food Purchasing Policy.

Directed by Portland, Ore.-based Food Alliance, with funding from the Russell Family Foundation, the guide is intended to help universities, colleges, hospitals, and other institutions – as well as those advocating for food system change – create, promote and implement practical sustainable food purchasing policies, AASHE said.

Authored by Matthew Buck at Food Alliance, and including preliminary research and interviews, the guide was contracted to John Stoddard at the Oregon Center for Environmental Health.

AASHE is a member organization of colleges and universities that works with businesses, nonprofits and government agencies to advance sustainability in higher education.
