Description
Mandela partners has been operating its in-house produce distribution hub, mandela produce distribution, for the past 11 years, which directly links limited-resource sustainable farmers within 150 miles of its west oakland hub to mandela's healthy retail program locations. The distribution hub sources produce from 28 sustainable farmers, known as mandela's bipoc farmer network. The goal of the proposed initiative is to strengthen sales channel opportunities and markets for mandela's bipoc farmer network, and increase urban consumer demand for raw and value-added agricultural products. To do this, mandela partners plans to increase the mandela community supported agriculture (CSA) program from two to four access points to support low access, low-income residents consume sustainably grown fruits and vegetables; develop a value-added produce product line with food E-commerce clients; and provide food safety technical assistance to strengthen competitiveness of farmers.
