Session 5
Using Local Food Network to Build a Regional Food System | Register Here!
Tuesday, May 13 at 11 a.m. PT
Local Food Network was built to scale and grow the local food economy. The program helps food hubs and farms partner more closely to serve larger buyers and increase the visibility of what local foods are currently available in a state or region.
Learn more about this exciting new program in our next webinar. We’ll cover what Networks are (including examples of existing and forthcoming Networks), how to establish one, and how Networks make it easier for farms and food hubs to work with grocery chains, school districts, hospitals, and other large buyers.
