Farm-to-school food delivery is helping Lee's Summit feed its students

PO1 William "Chip" Nagel
..."A growers' cooperative, The Kansas City Food Hub has 22 member farmers who aggregate the distribution of their products.

With five "sub-hubs" strategically located, no farmer has to drive more than 40 minutes to get their produce into the delivery chain.

For school districts the benefit is a reliable source of local fresh food to feed breakfast and lunch to students who rely on their schools as a nutrition source."...

sounds like a plan.... American definitely needs to do a better job of pushing a healthy diet, especially to the kids....

I love it. The closer to the problems one is, the better the solutions usually become.
