<strong>and</strong> we’ll gather your info for next year.<br />

We hear the phrase all the time... but what is food security?<br />

<strong>Food</strong> security is commonly associated with<br />

hunger <strong>and</strong> the inability of an individual or<br />

family to access enough food for their needs.<br />

More broadly, food security is about the degree<br />

of control we have in the present <strong>and</strong> in<br />

the long term over the food we need to feed<br />

ourselves, our families <strong>and</strong> our communities.<br />

The measure of our or any community’s compassion<br />

<strong>and</strong> health can be found in how well<br />

we care for our disadvantaged members.<br />

The Central Kootenay is fortunate to have many<br />

generous, dedicated <strong>and</strong> creative service providers<br />

who ensure food is available for those<br />

who need it in our communities. Check out the<br />

listing of Emergency <strong>Food</strong> Services so you know<br />

where to go should you have need, <strong>and</strong> you<br />

know who would benefit from food <strong>and</strong> money<br />

donations if you have excess.<br />

The <strong>Farm</strong> & <strong>Food</strong> Directory is one of several projects helping<br />

to make our food systems more resilient <strong>and</strong> strengthen the<br />

regional food economy.<br />
