Humboldt County Community Food Assessment

The purpose of this assessment is to provide an overview of Humboldt County’s food system and an examina- tion of how well it is serving our community. Community Food Assessments have proven to be an effective way to help establish priorities and actions taken by groups and individuals working on food systems planning.1 Humboldt County has many organizations working on such issues, ranging from food access to advocating for local farmers. This report provides hard data, identifies food system needs and helps target areas for change. It is intended to be a living document that will be updated as new data emerge.
