Stevens County office is committed to developing a community-based
food system that gives local citizens an option to buy local products
and gives local farmers an opportunity to make a reasonable profit.
The range of products we have in mind goes from fruits, vegetables,
and herbs through poultry and livestock products. We are currently
working on two projects that help to create this system: a community
kitchen and a mobile poultry processing unit. We encourage sustainable
