About the Local Foods Task Force

Statement of purpose

The UMN Local Foods Task Force represents faculty, staff, students, alumni and stakeholders from across Minnesota committed to increasing community food security through strengthening local food systems. We work to ensure widespread availability of local and sustainably produced foods throughout the University system. We will also seek to build the University’s resources around local food production, processing, distribution, and consumption in service to affordable, diverse, healthy, and just local food systems. By engaging and collaborating with University leadership and colleagues, we will craft and implement constructive strategies to fulfill our aims.
