Longmont has a number of active Community Supported Agriculture programs, farmers’ markets, and community gardens, and according to a 2010 survey conducted by LiveWell Longmont, 90% of respondents reported wanting to include more local foods in their diet. This strategy focuses on identifying and reducing barriers to and increasing opportunities for local food production in neighborhoods through community gardens, edible landscaping, small scale market gardens and school gardens.
