Affordability and accessibility are at the heart of SPC’s mission to increase the viability of small-scale producers while contributing to a healthy, just, and equitable local food economy. SPC distributes its produce through a variety of community outlets, including schools, community centers, hospitals, food banks, and small, independent grocery stores. They have actively worked to make produce from small farms eligible for school contracts and for consumer subsidies.
