As the Newark Community Food System (NCFS) enters its second year, we are looking for new voices invested in the conversation around community food. We are building an intellectual hub around the creation of local food producing communities to empower residents to become actively involved in reshaping their food system, while gaining control of their health and environment. In 2019, NCFS will continue to support the growth of and advocate for the strengthening of the local food system, amplify community-led initiatives and cultivate collaborations; and develop sustainability around urban agriculture and fresh healthy food access.
