First paragraph: Communities across North America are responding to environmental, economic, and social challenges in our food and agricultural systems by creating and nurturing “place-based food systems.” Some distinguishing features of place-based, regional food systems are that: • They are deeply connected to the environment and to caring for it in a particular place; • There are relationships of trust within supply chains from farmers and ranchers to processors to distributors to retailers or other institutions to consumers; • Community food security and food sovereignty are important goals and rights; • The health of individuals and communities is paramount; • There are infrastructures in place to support healthy place-based food systems; and • All members of the food system have an opportunity to participate meaningfully in its development. |
