What is EatReal?
EatReal is a student-run organization at Middlebury College (recognized in January 2013) that aims to increase the amount of real food served in Middlebury's dining halls. Using the standards set forth by the Real Food Challenge, we consider food "real" when it meets at least one of the following criteria: local, humane, ecologically sound, and fair. We achieve this by collaborating with the administration, Dining Services, and the Environmental Council as well as by raising awareness about socially and environmentally responsible food in the campus community. In doing so, we hope to cultivate a more mindful dining culture and a more sustainable food system at Middlebury, one which recognizes the intersectionality of human rights, animal wellbeing, and ecological resistance.
Join us for our weekly meetings! Monday's 6:30pm in La Force 121
