Last week, @gregwadebakes was honored to serve as a keynote speaker at the @hungerresource Hero Luncheon. Greg spoke about the importance of removing barriers and improving access across food systems, education, and community. Drawing from his work at Publican Quality Bread and the Artisan Grain Collaborative, he highlighted how training, communication, and collaboration can unlock opportunity, strengthen regional grain networks, and create a more connected and resilient food system.

UPDATE! We’re getting extremely excited for our Hunger Hero Luncheon, which is just around the corner on 5/6. While our original speaker had a last minute scheduling conflict, we are beyond thrilled to announce that James Beard award winning baker, and Managing Partner of Chicago’s acclaimed Publican Quality Bread will be joining us. Greg’s impactful work spans the full food chain, connecting Midwest farmers, milling, and baking to the tables of Chicago. We can’t wait to hear his perspective on strengthening the food system and supporting our communities.
