Cost of cutting local food

Produce and other food items at 4P Foods, a food distributor and delivery company in Warrenton.

AT Happy Hollow Farm, a small, 6.4ha operation in central Missouri, Liz Graznak grows a variety of vegetables, including organic carrots, Swiss chard, radishes and beets.

Some of those vegetables go to local distributors where they are placed in boxes, alongside meat and dairy items also produced in the state, and delivered to low-income people.
