How we came to be.This Teton-based group (Jackson Hole and Teton Valley) is a result of a handful of grassroots meetings held since May 2016 with chefs, farmers, and others initially interested in having farm-to-table events and a local food directory in Teton Valley.
Since then, we have broadened our focus to help coordinate local food system efforts on both sides of Teton Pass (the Teton “foodshed”) moving forward under the larger umbrella of a food and farm coalition. This allows us to link our regional efforts with food coalitions and policy councils throughout WY/ID and the U.S. As a coalition of like-minded businesses, farmers/ranchers, nonprofits, and other individuals, we recognize that there is strength in numbers, leading to positive social and economic capital. |
