TOOLKIT NOW AVAILABLE! Building Local Food Networks: A Toolkit for Organizers

We’ve recently released a toolkit that synthesizes our experience building and bolstering local food networks in the Pacific Northwest in order to support the efforts of other communities striving to do the same. In conjunction, we’ve launched an online, interactive learning community to stimulate peer-to-peer exchange of ideas, questions, and lessons learned around the topic of building local food networks.

2007 Farmer-Chef Connection Events
Our Farmer-Chef Connection Conferences in Seattle (February 5th) and Portland (March 5th) were both at capacity and a good time was had by all who attended.

If you missed this year's events, get listed in the Guide to Local and Seasonal Products (links below), and start making your market connections for this coming season. The printed version of the 2007 Guide to Local and Seasonal Products is due out in July 2007, and the online guide is always up-to-date and is available 24/7.

About The Farmer-Chef Connection
Founded by Ecotrust and the Portland Chapter of Chefs Collaborative and expanded by the Washington State Department of Agriculture, National Chefs Collaborative and other Washington partners, the Farmer-Chef Connection and Fisherman-Chef Connection programs have proven that direct marketing relationships that start with a handshake bring more dollars back to farmers, ranchers, fishermen and their communities.
