The Montgomery County Food Council is excited to share a new resource designed to help food assistance providers identify and source fresh produce from local, DMV-region farms and food businesses and/or DMV-based businesses owned/operated by individuals representing historically underserved communities. The resource includes vendor names, contact information, websites, and specialty produce options to make it easy to identify and connect with those vendors that best meet your needs. Thank you for supporting local, nutritious food in our community!

Sourcing from these vendors supports the priority of a number of Office of Food Systems Resilience grant programs for utilizing food sourcing strategies that entail collaboration with local, DMV-region farms and food businesses and/or DMV-based food retailers, wholesalers, and/or distributors owned/operated by individuals representing historically underserved communities.
Please reach out to Annmarie@mocofoodcouncil.org with any questions.
