From garden to table, local all the way.
VISION
Food Resilience and Security on Aotea
Aotea communities are connected, empowered, and skilled to ensure food resilience and security for Aotea.
MISSION
To support food resilience for Aotea
To enhance local food production, use, and storage to ensure food security for Aotea.
The Aotea Food Resilience initiative is a result of our Local Board’s vision to enable outcomes supporting sustainability and resiliency. Local food production minimises resource use by reducing the need for packaging and transportation, and it supports a circular economy.
The need for food resiliency is further heightened when events such as adverse weather, pandemics or other natural disasters disrupt the delivery of food to Aotea.
