Maine Network of Community Food Councils

The Maine Network of Community Food Councils’ goal is to increase the capacity of individual food system efforts across the state by:

1.  Creating a forum for community food efforts to share experiences, resources, information and strategies;

2.     Facilitating the development of local Food Policy Councils (FPCs) across the state;

3.     Supporting local and regional food systems assessment and planning efforts; and

4.   Creating a network of local level stakeholders that can join together to create a powerful voice when advocating for food sovereignty and vibrant food and agriculture systems at the state level.

Our next meeting is May 13, 2011 from 10:30-12:30 at Curtis Memorial Library (before ELFC's meeting). RSVP to Annie Doran (info below).
