      I work with local farmers, business owners, and schools to create access to healthy foods in the community. Rural Action runs the Chesterhill Produce Auction in Morgan county, witch is a local food hub. The auction brings farmers and consumers together to increase food access. I am part of the "Farm to school" movement and work to get local foods in cafeterias throughout Athens County. We strive to create a community that eats and shops local and has access to fresh produce. In order to create a better community we work with surrounding organizations with similar visions.
