GROWING A COMMUNITY FOOD SYSTEM

"Perhaps one of the most important elements of designing community
food systems projects is that it is a collaborative process. This means that
it includes the participation of multiple formal and informal organizations,
associations and individuals with a variety of backgrounds and expertise.
The participation of a broad cross-section of the community is essential for
the project to be representative and contribute to the growth of a community
food system."
