A sustainable, resilient, nutritious regional food system feeding local communities.
Mobilizing the Mid-Atlantic Foodshed’s resources and assets to mitigate the impact of the COVID-19 disruption on vulnerable communities and food-related businesses in the region. We're connecting communities to good, local food and making sure farmers are paid for their products. Bridging gaps in the food system to ensure our regional foodshed remains agile, resilient and responsive.
Small Farmers
The small farms that form the backbone of local food systems are in a moment of extreme vulnerability.
Local Business
MAFRAC coordinates efforts to keep people fed, farmers growing, and businesses operating.
At Risk Communities
Together we work to ensure everyone has access to healthy, nutrient-dense food.
Seeing the way this coalition and the larger food community has come together in the face of this crisis, I have realized that there is an opportunity here to not only fight back, but to potentially come out stronger on the other side.
