About Us

But in some places, the promise of local food is latent — our region included. The Northern Colorado Foodshed is a special place with complex opportunities and challenges. Our local food system has the potential for growth and impact. Left unrealized and untapped, we miss out on all the amazing outcomes that local food can bring.

That’s why the Northern Colorado Foodshed Project exists — to manifest the power of local food in our region. We want to enliven our local food system to be more productive, accessible and secure. We believe in a future where our local food system is nourishing the well-being of our region and all who live within it, restoring connections to fuel a vibrant and dynamic community.

HOW WE APPROACH
OUR WORK

By expanding the capacity of our food system and empowering everyone within it, we’ll manifest the power of local food in our region. To do this we focus on sparking demand, supporting production, increasing shared infrastructure and services, and growing the capacity of partner organizations. We also work to understand the needs of all people connected to our local food system and create opportunities for connection, gathering and the sharing of resources.
