Closing the Circle 2026: Roots, Remedies & Rescue · Friday, October 16, 2026
Sponsorship
Sponsorship underwrites a day that brings food recovery operators, county public health staff, urban farmers, researchers and funders into the same room. The tiers follow the loop the conference is named for: seed, harvest, full circle.
Seed Sponsor
Where it starts — support the convening and be credited among the sponsors of the day.
Harvest Sponsor
Full sponsor recognition across the site, program, signage and the luncheon, plus verbal recognition at the opening session.
Full Circle Sponsor
Everything at Harvest level, with elevated placement and a larger share of the day's visibility.
Presenting Sponsor
One organization presents the conference — top billing on everything from the save-the-date to the closing plenary.
