DOA, JFL Meet & Greet Set

The V.I. Department of Agriculture is partnering with the Gov. Juan F. Luis Hospital and Medical Center to form the “Farm to Hospital Program” to facilitate and promote the sale of Virgin Islands’ grown farm products to hospitals and institutions under the jurisdiction of the hospital to promote healthy living and to foster a healthy food environment.

They will jointly host a meet and greet to publicly announce the new initiative and to formally sign a memorandum of understanding (MOM), which delineates each agency’s responsibilities for this project. The public is invited to celebrate the joint venture between the two agencies while promoting healthy eating within the healthcare system.
