On Wednesday, June 8, Scott Bunn, Development Director at the Appalachian Sustainable Agriculture Project, will give an overview of ASAP’s mission and programs and talk about the upcoming Family Farm Tour.

Appalachian Sustainable Agriculture Project (ASAP) helps create and expand local food markets that will preserve our agricultural heritage, give everyone access to fresh, healthy food, and keep our farmers farming. Their mission is to help local farms thrive, link farmers to markets and supporters, and build healthy communities through connections to local food. To learn more and to get involved, visit http://www.asapconnections.org/.

ASAP provides an annual Local Food Guide to help people get connected with healthy, fresh food; the farmers who grow it; and the markets, grocers, and restaurants committed to using locally grown products. Visit http://buyappalachian.org/ for more information.
