Local Food
Help support and expand our local food systems.
Fresh, locally grown food supports healthy communities, strengthens local economies, and helps protect natural resources. Whether you’re growing food at home, participating in a community garden, or supporting local farmers, sustainable practices can improve soil health, conserve water, and reduce environmental impact.
Conservation districts provide resources to help growers and communities expand local food systems, from soil testing and irrigation planning to composting guidance and regenerative agriculture techniques.
