Across the country, there are a growing number of innovative policies that are changing the food access environment, providing communities with access to affordable healthy foods. By improving the quality and selection of food offered in stores and linking farmers directly to consumers, these efforts are increasing access to healthy foods, contributing to reduced rates of obesity and diabetes, creating jobs, increasing profits, and revitalizing distressed neighborhoods.
This section of the site acknowledges the efforts of several organizations locally and offers visitors a chance to get involved in developing policies that can help shape the environment of the food system in Spokane moving forward.
