Project focus area 

We are working to strengthen Pratt County’s local food system by improving coordination among organizations serving low-income residents. Our goal is to identify gaps in access and transportation - and develop a shared Local Foods Resilience Plan that reflects community priorities. This project sets the groundwork for long-term coordination and systems change.
