WHAT IS FOODROUTES AND WHAT DO WE DO?

FoodRoutes Network (FRN) is a non-profit organization that provides strategic communications and evaluation tools and information for sustainable farming and local food systems advocates. Our numerous programs include the following:

• The foodroutes.org Web site
• National polling research
• Message development
• "Buy local" campaign development
• Implementation strategies for state and local food system policies funded by the Farm Bill

The FoodRoutes Web site provides up-to-date research and information written by experts and practitioners in the field and a marketplace at communityfood.com where you can order sustainably-produced items. It also makes available calendars and directories where sustainable agriculture and related organizations can post their information and events. And, for your convenience, the Web site provides mapping technology that will help you locate good food and products near you, as well as links to a wide selection of related websites.
