Philadelphia Hospitals - Training in Sustainable

When 26 healthcare foodservice professionals from five Philadelphia-area hospitals attended the Sustainable Food Cook Training event on March 18 at the headquarters of broadline distributor Novick Brothers Corp., in Philadelphia, they came away with more than just new recipes.

Among the take-aways were more motivated and knowledgeable cooks, a sense of camaraderie among colleagues and a greater overall appreciation for sustainable, locally sourced produce.
