Emmy Andersson, of the Cooperative Development Institute (CDI), shares about work that CDI and the St. Mary’s Nutrition Center have been doing to advance the community-driven goals and actions in the Local Foods, Local Places Action Plan for Lewiston-Auburn. Specifically, both organizations have been advancing Goal 1: “Strengthen Access To Local Food While Expanding Market Opportunities and Infrastructure for Farm and Food Businesses”. They have been particularly active in implementing Actions 1.1 and 1.5 (which have been combined): “Conduct a feasibility study to determine the demand and need for a shared-use processing space, storage facility, commercial kitchen, as well as a cooperatively run, low-cost, local foods store in the Tree Streets neighborhood.” The Feasibility Phase is now done, and they are now in Phase 2, Development of a Lewiston Community Food Center (CFC).
