..."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."...

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