What we do

Education

A healthy and sustainable food system is  everyone’s business! We are passionate about building community understanding of how our food is produced and how we participate in our food system.

Projects

Food Action Projects are inspired by community need and address gaps within our local food system. See which projects we have worked on to promote community health, vibrancy, food security, and the local economy.

Policy
