I am passionate about designing systems of food distribution that ensure all citizens of the city can get the food they need, not just basic nutritional necessities but food that allows people to explore and delight. I also believe that engaging with the story of food from growth to eating, of the people and processes involved throughout, is a critical component for building more equitable, resilient, and humane food systems. Chicago Market promises to be a hub for local food with a focus on equitable outcomes for consumers and farmers.
