In connection with our work on the Wallace Center Nourishing Networks – Improving the Food Environment Project, Yellow Wood provided consulting services to Wallace under the Nourishing Networks: Capacity Building for Food Hubs and Regional Food Systems Project. Yellow Wood provided technical assistance to study hubs and their stakeholders to provide a framework for food hubs to learn how effective their work is compared to their goals, and to provide a framework for a small set of measures for food hubs to provide a better understanding of where we are across the country with this work.
