Plain-English Summary

The bill would make permanent a federal program that helps communities build stronger local food systems and create regional hubs where farmers and food producers can connect with buyers and consumers. This would support farmers, food businesses, and communities by providing funding and infrastructure to reduce dependence on long-distance food supply chains and create more resilient local markets. The measure is currently being reviewed by the Senate Agriculture Committee.
