Christy Clark pops in Community Food security

Premiere Clark visited Merritts new Country Music Hall of Fame, yesterday, and mingled with Merrittonians & bike rally attendees alike. Kaslo, Williams Lake, Clearwater, Lillooet are all doing it, and now Merritt is too taking steps towards improving their food security. What's changed that Merritt needs to address food security? According to Jill Starrs, dietitian with the Food Security Task Group, higher costs for housing and food, the economic downturn, climate change, and the way our global food is grown, sold and transported are a few factors contributing to food insecurity. But things can change and Merritt is primed for it! Great food programs exist in town Footprints Harvest Organic Produce Delivery Service, the Farmers Market, and Merritt Moms & Families. Emergency food programs include the NV & Dist. Food Bank and the Soup Bowl at St. Michaels Anglican Church. But food security is a continuum, at one end the emergency food programs and along the way there are programs to help individuals & communities improve their skills: community gardens, kitchens, school garden programs where participants not only meet the need for food but learn valuable lifelong skills. The recently-launched Plant a Row program is an example of this 'capacity building stage' in the continuum. At the other end of the continuum is Food Policy, which can guide changes in communities. To find out more and get involved, contact Jill at 378-3236 or Sharon Hartline, ASK Rural Health Services Support Counselor at 280-0407.
