    The Dane County Food Council, along with additional county leaders and food system partners, is convening an input session with the groups engaged in growing food at Anderson Farm County Park. This includes the growers at Anderson Farm County Park; Anderson Park Friends, Inc; and Rooted. The Dane County Food Council is a key partner involved in shepherding the newly released Dane County Food System Action Plan. The #2 goal of the plan is centered on Production, which includes strategies and actions focused on increasing land access and opportunities for local food production, including on publicly-owned land (see below). Connecting with the groups engaged in growing food at Anderson (on Dane County park land) provides an opportunity to better understand what’s working well, what challenges may be present, and what kinds of resources, opportunities, or support may be helpful. The feedback provided at this input session will help shape future programs, policies, and investments aimed at supporting local growers and strengthening food production in Dane County.
