Local Sustainable Food System
A local sustainable food system is a way of producing, distributing, and consuming food within a specific area that supports the environment, local economy, and community health. It focuses on local farms, eco-friendly practices, fair wages, and reducing food waste while ensuring everyone has access to fresh, nutritious food.
