In preparation for the upcoming Archuleta County Food System Summit — scheduled for Saturday April 9 from 10am – 4:30pm at the CSU Extension building — the community is invited to participate in a series of food related activities and tours in the week leading up to the event. These activities will facilitate the community’s diverse food system stakeholders to define and build connections throughout our region’s food system, by highlighting some of the great work already happening around the community — actions and activities that are actively engaged in strengthening the local food system and moving us toward nutrition security and food equity so that everyone in the community has access to affordable nutritious fresh foods.
