USFA HOSTS: Two Member Meetings
WINTER MEMBER MEETING
The School District of Palm Beach County hosted our winter member meeting in February of 2024. Our members, staff, leadership, and partners experienced the difference Palm Beach is making by growing school gardens and elevating the student dining experience. These meetings are critical in bringing decision makers together to share and create new school food ideas.

FALL MEMBER MEETING
In September of 2024 the Urban School Food Alliance hosted the fall membership meeting in Chicago, IL. Child nutrition legislative updates and food waste solutions were all part of the agenda. During the meeting we also celebrated the remarkable work of individuals and organizations committed to advancing nutrition and sustainability in school food. Rich Petrone, Regional Sales Manager for Huhtamaki, accepted a recognition award for their historic work with USFA to create and bring to market a compostable, round 5-compartment tray. We also recognized Michael Rosenberger (Dallas ISD) and Stephen O’Brien (New York City Public Schools) for their contributions as members and officers on the board of directors. Both retired from their districts in the fall of 2024. In addition, leadership presented two Innovation Awards - one for a USFA member and one to an industry member.
