Mountain Towns & Local Food Systems, Pt. 4: The Good Food Collective

For the final installment of our Mountain Towns & Local Food Systems series, Kara Williard talks to Rachel Landis, Executive Director of the Good Food Collective in Durango, CO. Rachel discusses why she left a career of guiding and ski patrol to be the ultimate facilitator of local food systems; they nail down what a food hub is; what a “just and regional food system” looks like; how she works to bring people in her community together; some of the unique programs of the Good Food Collective, such as a Produce Prescription Program with the local hospital; then, Jonathan and Kara recap the series, their major takeaways, and why they were left inspired.
