Local Matters reaches over 11,000 people annually by delivering critical, hands-on cooking, nutrition and growing education to everyone from preschoolers to seniors at 80+ sites in central Ohio and statewide. The CareSource Community Kitchen was built on-site at Local Matters’ new office and enables them to teach healthful food education to the public, regardless of ability to pay; train satellite partners from around the state; and teach a culinary medicine curriculum to health care providers. The City of Columbus and Franklin County, in partnership with Local Matters, will create the first-ever Columbus-Franklin County Food Action Plan. The plan creates a road map to improve access to nutritious food and education about healthy food; increase the role of food in economic development; enhance communication and coordination among existing food resources and agencies; and prevent food-related waste.
