The Vermont Food Security Roadmap Coalition

Vermont Food Security Roadmap Coalition

The Vermont Food Security Roadmap Coalition works to implement the Roadmap strategies. 

The Coalition is a newly formed group of the Farm to Plate Network. In 2025, the Coalition hopes to open membership to additional organizations, and grow to include representatives from all sectors intersecting the Roadmap, including but not limited to: transportation, health care, housing, farming, business, government, education, and more.

Community-Based Roadmap Efforts

Vermont community input for the Roadmap resoundingly called for a new level of statewide communication and collaboration. The participation of local communities, and of people directly affected by specific implementation activities will be necessary to create equity and justice. 

Vermont's ten Hunger Councils, focused on local efforts in regions across the state, are one venue where towns and communities can collaborate in fulfillment of the Roadmap. Both individuals and organizations participate in Hunger Councils. To find out more, and get involved in your local Hunger Council, visit Hunger Free Vermont's website which includes contact information.
