Locally-owned and operated grocery stores have long been
a cornerstone of their community. They provide essential
services to their neighbors, including access to fresh food
and household products, and serve as a market for
farmers, producers, and artisans. Recognizing the role that
these businesses play in communities, the WVRGN grew
out of a Healthy Food Financing Initiative grant. It's the
Coalition's goal that these businesses are sustainable and
successful as they not only feed their community but also
source locally grown agricultural products.
Together with several partners, we have created the West
Virginia Grocer Toolkit to help folks start the process of
becoming an independent grocer. Find it here!View entire presentation
