Our Vision

Local Food.

Local Opportunity.

A Stronger Regional Food Economy.

The Great Falls Food Hub is building connections among farmers, food producers, entrepreneurs, buyers, educators, community organizations, and neighbors across the Great Falls Region.

We are creating the infrastructure, partnerships, programs, and opportunities needed to help local food businesses grow, expand access to local food, and build a more resilient regional food system.

Our Mission

The Great Falls Food Hub strengthens our regional food economy by connecting farmers, food producers, entrepreneurs, institutions, and communities with the infrastructure, education, partnerships, and opportunities they need to thrive.

Together, we are working toward a more resilient, connected, equitable, and thriving local food economy.
