CAMDEN, NJ — On Tuesday, a group attending the Sustainable Agriculture & Food Systems Funders Forum in Philadelphia visited the Cathedral Kitchen in Camden, N.J., which has provided hot, nutritious meals and other services to residents since 1976. In 2008, Cathedral Kitchen broke the emergency food service mold when it opened a 13,000-square-foot facility that also integrates medical and dental services. Camden faces daunting fresh food and poverty challenges.
Seeding Chicago interviewed (video above) the Kitchen’s executive director, Karen Talarico, and chef Jonathan Jernigan about Cathedral’s unique approach to serving its community.
