The above link takes you to a catalog compiled by HFSDV member Pat Reber's Researching Food History of past and present virtual speakers from all around the globe on a host of food-related history topics. It is a fantastic resource to find speakers and also to listen to past and present talks. 

Much gratitude goes to HFSDV member
Pat Reber for putting this list together and for keeping us all updated on virtual food history program being presented around the globe. Pat started this project during Covid but continues to compile the list of food history speakers.

Pat received the HFSDV Tom Martin Food History Leadership Award at the 2022 HFSDV annual meeting in December 2022 for her service to food historians everywhere!
