Fair Food Network (FFN) took a step to gather key information from recognized leaders in the field of community food systems with the goal of using the knowledge to help inform potential investment in the field. The information FFN sought from these leaders concerned the innovative programs and business activities that are currently being considered and implemented and the resources needed to bring these innovations to scale. One important aspect about this gathering was that these leaders are ethnically diverse, from both rural and urban areas around the country, and are engaged in a wide range of activities (from a community grocery store, to farming, distribution, agricultural business incubation, community organizing, and providing healthy, prepared meals to school children and seniors).
