Farm to Plate: Vermont’s 10 Year Plan for Strengthening Local Food

How can Vermont build strong local food systems, create jobs in the food and farm economy, and improve access to healthy local food? The Vermont Sustainable Jobs Fund has laid out an impressive road map for the next 10 years of agricultural development with January’s release of the Farm to Plate Strategic Plan.

All are welcome to attend the Farm to Plate meeting:

• Tuesday, April 26th
• 7:30 - 9:00 p.m.
• Black Box Theater, Main Street Landing

Kit Perkins, project manager of the Initiative, will lead this presentation to discuss the findings of the Initiative’s exhaustive 18-month research project. She’ll present their strategies to increase jobs and enterprises in the farm and food sector and ramp up local food production and consumption in Vermont and regions beyond our borders.

Get a sneak peak at the plan’s Executive Summary.

This presentation is co-sponsored by City Market and the Burlington Food Council.
