Tom Lowe is the Project Director for the Niagara Falls Local Food Action Plan, under the umbrella of Field & Fork Network. Tom’s work is 100% focused on strengthening the local food system and improving access to healthy food options in the City of Niagara Falls; and doing so from the groundup, with residents engaged early and often. Tom thinks there are great opportunities to better connect the amazing rural growers of the region to the inner-city areas, to provide more locally grown options for consumption in urban areas, and to provide mentorship opportunities for urban growers. The challenge here, however, would be the capacity of an already overburdened producing community.
