As a disciple of the “new food” movement with degrees in nutrition, public health and urban studies, it’s all coming together for Judith Belasco. She’s currently associate director of food programs at Hazon, a Jewish community-based NGO that gets its members engaged in the challenge of sustainable living, with its name taken from the Hebrew word for “vision.” Among the activities coordinated by Belasco are “Challah for Hunger” bake-offs, “Jewish Farm School” and an annual food conference, to be held this December in Monterey, California.
