Secure Food Future Dialogues
Right now, the prevailing structure of the American food system is not designed to benefit, protect, or reward farmers. Overcoming the challenges farmers face in transitioning to these healthier practices will allow them to not only build resilience on the land, but also to expand the value of their own operations, and secure a better livelihood. ICDP is launching a series of Secure Food Future Dialogues, to give farmers a voice and to foster better faster design and implementation of a food system that works for everyone.
