Are you thinking of starting your own food movement or your own local food related project or business?
We believe the best way to encourage you to find your niche and help us build the infrastructure for Virginia’s local food system is by sharing what others have done and letting you know that these examples are out there for potential guidance. If you have a story or would like to write up a case study of your local food system endeavor to share here, please contact us.
