It's not just about growing enough healthy food; it's also about getting that healthy food to a place where it can be utilized. Small farms can offer more food than they can sell at a farmer's market, but not enough to supply the local school. A Food Hub is a place where multiple suppliers can pool their products to be able to fill larger orders. Can you imagine if your local school, also fed the kids local foods from local suppliers? How amazing would that be? Check out this infographic, from Visual.ly that explains a Food Hub's importance to a Sustainable America.
