In other news, the All Things Food Community Food Network has partnered with a local Master’s Candidate to undertake a Community Food Assessment in SDG.
The assessment will survey local food producers, farmer's markets, community food programs, and community institutions to determine the accessibility and availability of healthy, local and sustainable food in SDG.
If you fall into any of these categories but have not yet received the survey, please contact info@allthingsfoodbouffe360.ca.
Survey results will be compiled in late summer and shared with communities in SDG via All Things Food's website and newsletter, community forums, and a formal report.
