Explore Our Work
WNC Food Coalition is working for a strong local food system in Western North Carolina in three focused strategy areas:
We work “downstream” to ease the hunger created by gaps in our current, broken system.
We work “upstream” to facilitate stronger relationships between food systems organizations: creating collaborative agriculture and aggregation.
We work with you. We organize community leaders, experts, and volunteers to strategize and effect county-led goals
Support Our Mission
We are a Coalition of engaged citizens at all levels: non-profit and for-profit organizations, municipalities, educators, community health workers, farmers, and volunteers.
