Communities that are vibrant have more than a strong economy and good infrastructure. They also require local food systems that provide fresh, healthy, nutrient-dense food that is accessible and affordable for residents. Since 2005, Ogallala Commons has provided resources, conducted Local Food Summits, developed market channels for local producers, as well as provided connections between producers and consumers. Our master plan for our vast region is illustrated in this Emerging Foodsheds Map. Our food system development work is illustrated in this map and logic model.  www.myfoodshed.org
