Climate Resilience

The Climate Resilience committee recognizes both that our food system is a major driver of greenhouse gas emissions and that how we grow and consume food can also greatly reduce climate change and offer an opportunity for our food system to be more resilient. The Climate Resilience committee focuses its work on supporting and highlighting the work happening across the SMFSA and its members in how we can reduce our impact on the climate and improve our resilience.
