This June, the Intervale Center is launching the Food Basket, a multi-farm workplace delivery program. The Food Basket is an integral part of the Food Hub project, which is committed to building a community food system that connects Vermonters in ways that are convenient, profitable and honorable. Through the Food Basket, we will strive to provide shareholders with convenient access to high-quality local agricultural products, offer fair prices to farmers and increase marketing opportunities for participating farms. In its first year, the Food Basket is bringing together over fifteen farmers, one hundred shareholders and several area businesses including Fletcher Allen Health Care, Vermont Energy Investment Corporation and GE Healthcare!
