Food systems are a complex topic as they not only represent the cycle of growing, distributing, eating and recycling of food but also all the factors that affect this cycle whether it be social systems, culture or economic systems. It is about food being central, food sovereignty and about how food connects us all. This executive summary details a project supported by Healthy Living Niagara in March/April 2013 which explored the Niagara food system – what is going on and who is doing it, the context and different perspectives, the connections, the key players, the challenges and the opportunities.
