Preparing to Explore Salt Lake City’s Food System

Welcome back to the Hunger Solutions in Utah podcast! I’m your host, Brittney Johnson, and today, I’m excited to set the stage for an insightful conversation coming your way next week. We’ll be joined by Maria Schwarz, the Food System Resilience Program Manager for Salt Lake City, who will walk us through a groundbreaking initiative called the City Food Assessment.

This initiative takes a deep dive into understanding food systems right here in Salt Lake City. From food production and distribution to access and waste, Maria and her team are uncovering essential insights that will shape the future of food resilience in our community. But before we hear from Maria next week, let’s take some time to familiarize ourselves with the concepts and terms she’ll be discussing, so you’ll be ready to dive right in.
