The Solution

Localize Our Food Chain

We need to build a more resilient food system to better endure a crisis in the future. This involves localizing food systems to keep producers and consumers closer together. A shorter food supply chain is better for Montana farmers, ranchers, communities, and consumers.

Lessons We Have Learned

1.

One lesson we have learned from COVID-19 is that we need to build a more resilient food system to better endure a crisis in the future.

3.

Localizing food systems will shorten supply chains. This not only supports food security for the general public but also helps communities.

2.

Regulations must be streamlined to remove barriers impeding small and medium sized meat processors.

4.

Write our Montana elected officials and tell them you care about food security.
