Take the Farm to Food Assistance Survey

via the Wallace Center for Food System Leadership Network

The purpose of this survey is to better understand the market channel that connects small-to mid-size local food producers and the food assistance/hunger relief sector, what we call Farm to Food Assistance (F2FA). Connections between farmers and food assistance efforts come in many shapes and sizes. This survey is specifically interested in those where farmers are paid for their product, which people facing food insecurity then access for free or at a discounted price. There are different types of organizations and businesses who participate in this market channel such as farmers, food hubs, food banks, coordinating organizations, and other hunger relief organizations. The results of this survey will provide us with a better understanding of this growing market channel so we can continue to support farmers’ fair wages while increasing community food security. Survey data will contribute to our efforts to make Farm to Food Assistance Programs like those in your network more sustainable and effective. The Wallace Center will also use it to design relevant technical assistance to support the work of Farm to Food Assistance implementers. Take the survey
