Planning for a Sustainable Local Food System

Video highlights the importance of local food as it travels from the farm to the table. By producing more of the food we consume locally, we keep money in the region, support local businesses, and have delicious, fresh produce to eat. Visit www.cmap.illinois.gov/food to learn more.

Planning for a sustainable or regenerative local food system is quite the challenge. In our community of Stelle, Illinois we have created a community canning kitchen in order to get food from the community garden processed for consumption and storage. The Center for Sustainable Community has been instrumental in helping me to learn more about Community and the local food system. cscstelle
