Transforming Regional Food Systems

Advancing Food Equity at the Local Level

We’re combining national best practices with local knowledge and resources to uplift health across food systems through projects in the Mississippi Delta.

Working in partnership with community stakeholders throughout the Mississippi Delta, we are executing a multi-year plan to grow a sustainable, resilient food ecosystem centered on health promotion and community ownership.

Through our MS Delta work, partners collaborate to identify scalable, replicable programs, business models, and policies that will provide opportunities for and engage the next generation, utilize new technologies, and uplift the people, cultural traditions, and locally grown crops of the Delta.
