2024 Coalition Priorities

Yearly coalition priorities are chosen through regional advisory council meetings. All residents of WNC are welcome to attend these meetings!

The coalition takes on projects in these areas:

  • Collaborative Agriculture

  • Community Gardens

  • Food Waste Reduction

  • Healthy Food Distribution

  • Nutritional Education

  • Regional Food Councils

Our three program priorities for this year are:

Collaborative Agriculture Network: The planning and research phase of a regional wholesale aggregation project for local food. This project prioritizes small farms throughout the region.

Healthy Food Distribution: Regional food distribution to harm reduction and recovery centers across WNC.

Regional Food Councils: Ongoing support of the strategic planning, collaboration and training of rural local food councils across WNC.
