There’s a lot to learn when people come together for conversations about what it takes to build a food system that reflects the communities it serves.
Angel, Mikel, and Kelsey recently traveled to Lewiston, Auburn, and Portland at the invitation of the Maine Immigrants' Rights Coalition which is exploring the development of a culturally relevant food hub.
The trip was a chance to share knowledge, build relationships, and learn from the strong groundwork and collaboration already happening behind the scenes. We came away encouraged by how much thoughtful work is already in motion and grateful for the opportunity to exchange ideas and learn from one another.
Strong food systems start with strong relationships.
