FS-3Expand connections between local food producers and areas/populations in need

According to the 2014 American Community Survey, nearly 10% of households and 20% of children received supplemental nutrition assistance program (SNAP) benefits in the past twelve months. Furthermore, most consumers (90% according to a survey by LiveWell Longmont) travel by car to purchase fruit and vegetables. This strategy focuses on continuing to expand access to local foods, especially areas and populations in need through enhanced connections and partnerships with local organizations and food producers.
