REFLECTION QUESTIONNourishing Food Advocate for Equitable Food AccessWhat changes would help food insecure regions have access to local, seasonal foods? How can your choices contribute to these changes?
Muhammad Nazif 10/23/2022 7:01 AMIn many rural areas, access to healthy foods may be limited because of transportation challenges or distances to get to healthy food options.

Finding sustainable strategies is important when considering new programs or improvements to local food systems. -
