Mothering Earth - 92 - Food Access

Mothering Earth Podcast

Food is clearly an essential item for all of us, but for some people buying food, especially things like fresh fruits and vegetables, is an impossibility. That's where places like food pantries and organizations like the Sustainable Food Center, come in. We're hearing today from Alex Mace who manages a program at the Sustainable Food Center, in Austin, Texas, that helps people using SNAP benefits gain access to fresh produce, and at the same time promotes local farmers and food producers. Like others featured on Mothering Earth, Mace is a person who is taking action to help create a more sustainable and equitable world.
