The Food and Agriculture Charter of Simcoe County is a document that outlines the vision and principles that our community considers most important about food.
HOUSEHOLD FOOD INSECURITY Household food insecurity is experienced when an individual or household lacks the financial resources to access food. This can be influenced by such things as cost of living, job security, access to transportation, etc.
COMMUNITY FOOD SECURITY Community food security is a condition in which all community residents have access to a safe, culturally appropriate, nutritionally adequate diet through a sustainable food system that maximizes community self-reliance and social justice.
