Community Partner Leads Food Access Program Partners
Hunger Task Force, Wisconsin's Anti-hunger Leader, plans to utilize WI Local Food Purchase Assistance (LFPA) funds to purchase fresh and minimally processed Wisconsin-produced foods from disadvantaged and underserved farmers. These foods will be distributed to food pantries in 30 of Wisconsin's most food-insecure counties.
The project targets low-income seniors, providing them with locally grown and processed foods free of charge, including 40,000 pounds of beef and pork, 3,800 pounds of salmon, and 18,000 pounds of produce. Socially disadvantaged farmers and food producers will benefit by gaining guaranteed markets, training, and technical assistance, allowing for better planning and thriving in the supply chain.
