School meals are one of the most powerful — and often overlooked — tools for supporting student health, academic success, and equity. This webinar equips superintendents and school leaders with the knowledge to champion high-quality, nourishing meals while addressing common barriers such as cost, labor, and infrastructure. Learn how investing in better school food can be both cost-effective and data-driven, with strategies for measuring impact, engaging stakeholders, and building long-term program resiliency. Plus, discover how expert coaching and peer support can help you lead meaningful, sustainable change in your district.

This FREE webinar will be presented by SFIA Founder and Beyond Green Partners Lead Consultant, Chef Greg Christian, who offers his 30+ years of experience in the food service and sustainability sectors to educate and illuminate this often-overlooked field for school administrators.

Greg is a pioneer in integrating sustainability into food service, having created client-driven strategies to optimize operations with local, seasonal, and sustainable ingredients, while reducing environmental impact. His experience spans from developing waste-reduction programs to facilitating farm-to-institution models, and his work has impacted over 30,000 youth and at-risk populations in institutions across America.

Greg is a sought-after speaker and has developed educational curriculums on sustainability, including Grow. Teach. Feed and 9-Minute Nutrition Ninja. He holds an associate degree from the Culinary Institute of America and continues to lead the charge for change in the food service industry through his work with Beyond Green Partners and the Sustainable Food Institute of America.
