Community Food
Systems
A community
food systems is composed of four components: the producer, processing
systems, avenues of distribution, and consumers. The greater degree
that these components are localized or regionalized, the more resillent
will be the rural community, the more sustainable will be the production
system, and the more secure will be the food system. Our office
is committed to programs that enhance a localized community food
system that provides numerous marketing and distribution options
for local producers and provides options for consumers to purchase
local products and support local agriculture.
