Regional Food System Plan
June 2011
In recognition of the growing potential for local agriculture to augment the economy of the Northeast Kingdom, NVDA has commissioned a plan for a Regional Food System. A food system encompasses all of the land, infrastructure, activities and people from soil to plate and back to the soil as nutrients. The Strategies and Action items presented in the plan offer methods to develop the NEK's agricultural economy and contribute to region wide land-use and community planning goals. The key Goals and Strategies of the Regional Food System Plan will inform the next update of NVDA's comprehensive Regional Plan.
The Food System Plan, its Executive Summary, and individual sections with high quality images, are provided below:
