Dear Lopez Community,
This summer, the Lopez Community Land Trust is launching an exciting project. The Lopez Island Foodshed Assessment is the first in-depth study of Lopez's food system that endeavors to answer the question "Can Lopez Island Feed Itself?" This project will provide a wealth of information about our island that will help us to measure progress in local foods and the impact of local agriculture on the island's economy. The foodshed assessment is one step towards making local food available to all on Lopez.
This is a participatory project, and in order for it to succeed I need your help. One of the easiest ways to get involved is by taking a short online survey. In order to get accurate information, we need as much participation as possible - so please take a few minutes to fill out the survey and then share this website with friends and neighbors. With your help, we can ensure the success of this important project!
I am excited to do this work on Lopez because when it comes to creating a sustainable food system, Lopez Island is setting the example. I look forward to engaging in this celebration of local food and local farming.
With gratitude,
Ezra Fradkin
