"How and where food is grown, processed, packaged, transported, and prepared makes a
difference! Just as we are shaped by what we eat, the land and our communities are
also shaped by what we grow and what we eat. Food choices influence farmland preservation,
water quality, the availability of jobs, and the health of our citizens. The Dane County
Food Council will go a long way toward creating economic development for local farmers
and businesses while providing County residents with healthy and nutritious food choices."
-Ruth Simpson, Dane County Food Council
