Our Mission

The Yolo Food Hub Network will consist of new and expanded facilities for aggregating, processing, storing, and distributing farm produce grown throughout Yolo and neighboring counties. The Food Hub project will make fresh, nutritious foods available directly to school children, hospital patients, houseless individuals, prisoners, and low-income residents. It will enable the marketing of local produce into regional food service sites as well as to retail and wholesale buyers.

YFHN will improve regional food security, stabilize food markets, increase employment and job training opportunities, and strengthen our local food economy. Yolo Food Bank’s supplies, in particular, will be secured and expanded through the proposed food hub.
