Local Food Hub is a nonprofit organization that partners with Virginia farmers to increase access to local food. It provides the support services, infrastructure, and market opportunities that connect people with food grown close to home. It offers a smarter, healthier alternative to traditional agribusiness models by reinstating small farms as the food source for the community. It forges close relationships with its farmers and provides essential services that lead to the direct distribution of fresh, high-quality food to institutions, retailers, restaurants, and schools. It creates community partnerships that promote the knowledge of and access to local food where it is needed most. In 2015, $225,000 worth of produce from local farms made up monthly snacks and cafeteria meals for schoolchildren, filled fruit and veggie “prescriptions” for low-income health clinics, and supplied youth programs, workplace food shares, and food banks.
