Local governments will consider a plan to reduce hunger, invest in locally grown food and reduce food waste. The food and farm council presented an overview of a food master plan to city and county commissioners Thursday at a joint meeting of the Manhattan and Riley County commissions. Riley County will consider adopting the item on June 9, and the city commission on June 21. The Food and Farm Council began working with New Venture Advisors almost a year ago, starting with research and goal setting. They then conducted community engagement and surveys to identify key findings, draft action steps and create the plan.
