Glynwood Center for Regional Food and Farming

Last month, Glynwood Center for Regional Food and Farming, a member of The Alliance, hosted us to see their beautiful farm and chat about systems change in food. It is amazing to see how so much of the food supply chain is represented in one spot.    The Alliance got to know Glynwood through their Food Sovereignty Fund which has been contracting small-scale farmers from historically marginalized backgrounds to supply fresh, nutrient-dense, culturally significant food to frontline food access programs since 2020. Glynwood also operates a host of other programs that are transformative the food system such as CSA is a SNAP, their work on supporting locally grown grains and staples, and so much more.    Thank you for having us!
