Whole Measures for Community Food Systems

The spectrum of those working towards community food security is culturally and geographically diverse, spanning a broad range of people, places and activities.

Whole Measures for Community Food Systems is designed to give organizations and communities a collaborative process for defining and expressing their complex stories and the multiple outcomes that emerge from their work.
