A regional food hub is a centrally located facility with a business management structure facilitating the aggregation, storage, processing, distribution, and/or marketing of locally/regionally produced
food products. (ams.uda.gov). Regional food hubs are essential to sustainable agriculture and food distribution because you can get more healthy foods to people in areas all over the country even when there is no farms or food markets around. It provides a good management that most farmers lack, and they actually try to have enough food and fruits for everyone so they can have enough. There are so many places in harford county and even in Bel Air where John Carroll could purchase vegetables, fruits, meat, dairy, and anything required in order to eat healthy. Brooms Bloom Dairy sells vegetables, fruits, and dairy to people everyday.
John Caroll should really look to find the locally grown fruits, vegetables, dairy, bread, anything before they buy it from places all over the world! Local is much healthier!
