It was our pleasure to welcome Columbus City Council President Shannon Hardin () to the Local Matters office this week. Council President Hardin and his staff toured the space and explored the ins and outs of our operation while discussing the need for organizations like Local Matters in our city. Government programs like SNAP can only go so far and reach so many people, which is where organizations plugged directly into the needs of their neighborhoods fill in gaps in food access and education.
Council President Hardin shares our understanding that access to food is the start, not the end of taking care of the food needs of our community. When people are equipped with the tools and the knowledge of how to grow that food, prep that food, and balance those meals, they can better nourish themselves and their families. From there, they can better show up in all of the other important parts of their lives, and we can build a more sustainable food system and healthier communities.
