A Marion County Food Coalition meeting will be held today at the Marion County Public Health Department in Knoxville from 2:30 to 4 p.m.

The meeting is being held to help find more ways area food stakeholders can collaborate together following their last meeting in November as well as discuss healthy food options for food pantries. The meeting is open to anyone who is employed by a food pantry, volunteers who serve at a food pantry, is part of a school lunch or backpack program, or has a vested interest in food distribution throughout Marion County. Anyone who regularly goes to food pantries to receive food is also welcome to attend.
