REFLECTION QUESTIONFood, Agriculture, and Land UseDependable fresh food, supporting local farmers and building resilient communities are just a few benefits of local food systems. Which of these (or other) advantages inspire you the most?
Joe O'Shaughnessy 10/11/2023 10:17 AMI got this weeks veggies from the Farmers Market. It was so inspiring to see the people who grew our food. I want to continue to build resilient small farmers who can have a reliable source of income.
