The Maine Food Strategy was pleased to help facilitate sessions at the Maine Network of Community Food Councils Summit in April. Participants engaged in a series of enthusiastic discussions on strengthening relationships and connectivity in our food system and a variety of other topics. The Summit also marked the formal departure of long-time network coordinator Ken Morse who formerly handed off the baton to new staff, Brianna Bowman. Thank you, Ken, for leading this important group!
Food Councils are locally organized groups working on issues such as food insecurity and increasing awareness of local food production in their communities. Many of these groups meet monthly through the Maine Network of Community Food Councils to share information and resources. FMI contact mainefoodcouncils@gmail.com.
