We are currently rethinking our strategies on how we participate in building an equitable, sustainable and robust local and regional food systems, the foundation of a healthy community. We believe the food system is an economic multiplier.  Our mission and vision will not change! If you would like to stay informed please contact us and ask to join our mailing list. We are hoping to share some exciting news by the end of 2023.

The Trust will continue to provide individuals and businesses the opportunity to invest directly in a regional food culture and economy.  

Investments will continue to be directed to transformative projects benefitting local farms, food ventures, makers, artisans, and small enterprises to help them build their business or organization for true resilience.

Why do we focus on local food systems?

• Everyone participates in the food culture and economy.

• Supporting local food producers and access points is an economic multiplier that keeps more resources in the community or a region.

How do we apply our resources and expertise?

• We provide consulting services to clients designed to improve the functionality of their business or organization.

• We provided financial support to producers, organizations and businesses through charitable contributions made by our donors.

• We maximize community impact by assessing and leveraging local resources and available regional markets.

• As an advocacy organization and information clearing house we strengthen local communities by building awareness and market share through value chain coordination and matchmaking.
