VARNA — The first in a series of meetings to discuss the concept of a local sustainable food system in Huron County was held last week in Varna.
Presented by consultants Mary Ferguson and Ryan Turnbull, the goals of the meeting May 8 were to “create a unified understanding of a sustainable food system in Huron, bring learning from other rural areas engaged in sustainable food system efforts and build momentum and leadership for a sustainable food system in Huron County.”
Ferguson said the work will involve creating a current picture of Huron’s food system and seeing who is interested in seeing it go further. One of the jobs is to define what sustainability is, she said, adding Huron is a net exporter of food.
“If we’re eating Chinese peas, does that make sense?” she asked.
