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 />
