Reducing Barriers Around Accessing and Affording Local Food and Inviting Everyone to be Part of their Local Food System

Oak%20Street%201_edited.jpg

We believe that local food is for everyone, and we work to reduce the barriers that get in the way of this, including transportation, price, timing, and stigma. We collaborate with community organizations to host local food markets at convenient times and locations, offer financial incentives on local food purchases, advocate for systemic change toward food equity, and bring the fun and flavor into eating local! In addition, we provide our local farmers with an additional sales outlet where they can reach new audiences and take part in an inclusive and transparent local food system.
