Plain-English Summary
This bill would likely support local and regional farming by making it easier for small farmers to sell directly to schools, hospitals, and other institutions in their communities. It probably includes funding or regulatory changes to help local food systems compete with large national suppliers and reduce the distance food travels from farm to table. The measure would benefit small farmers, local food producers, and communities seeking fresher, locally-grown food options.
