New Haven creates a food action plan

The New Haven Food Policy Council has created a food action plan for the city.

The introduction for the plan starts:

"Imagine New Haven is a city where

. . .

√

everyone eats healthy, affordable food, and no one goes hungry;

√

food businesses are thriving, multiplying, and hiring local residents;

√

people have the skills and knowledge they need to choose and cook healthy food; and

√

collaboration is strengthened among residents, government, community organizations, and neighborhood groups to improve our food environment."

Indeed, imagine if all of our communities were such places!
