Program Description

  Food Systems Resilience

OFSR is charged with developing and maintaining a strategy for improving the efficiency, equity, sustainability, and resilience of the food systems in Montgomery County. Through fostering public-private partnerships with the community for systems change, OFSR will expand upon the County government's investments in ensuring equitable and dignified access to nutritious, culturally diverse foods for all residents and harness the unique strengths of business, nonprofit, and government partners to enhance the health of our people, economy, and natural resources. Ensuring greater County government focus on food systems data collection, monitoring, and reporting (including food access and security data) is a priority of OFSR.
