Our board of directors approves adoption of the Food Solutions New England Food Vision as a guiding vision for our organization. The regional plan has a bold vision of building capacity for New England to grow 50 percent of its own food by 2060. As of 2016, as much as 90% of the food we consume still comes from outside our region. We reconfirm our commitment to reaching this “50 by 60” goal through our education and market-building programs, and begin early planning to expand the infrastructure of Rhode Island’s local food system with our Providence Headquarters development project.
