Summit Food Coalition

Summit Food Coalition works to improve access to healthy food for all Summit County residents, and spur economic opportunities for farmers and food entrepreneurs.

We are a coalition of organizations and individuals who are passionate about helping everyone in our community find local food sources, and eat more healthfully.

We work to improve Summit Country residents’ overall health and quality of life through local food in four focus areas:

Education: We create a culture of healthy eating through outreach programs that teach people how to grow, use and sell local food.

Policy: We review and recommend policies that will help people incorporate local food into their everyday lives.

Access: We connect organizations and people to help build a food system that makes local, nutritious food available to every Summit County resident throughout the year.

Food Economy: We bring together local food entrepreneurs to network, share ideas, and provide mutual support.
