We're thrilledthat FRESHFARM's incentive programs have been spotlighted alongside leading nutrition experts in this @civileats.com story. Our approach has always been about empowerment and choice, helping SNAP participants access fresh, nutritious foods directly from local farmers and producers.

Happy 20th Anniversary to the H Street Farmers Market! A farmers market doesn’t just connect you to fresh food, it connects you to community. H Street has been doing that for 20 years & now it will run year round!!! @freshfarmdc.bsky.social

Agriculture Department to Require Testing of U.S. Milk Supply for Bird Flu Virus The new rules call for testing unpasteurized milk from dairies across the country and for farm owners to provide details that would help officials identify and track cases more easily.

Breaking News: Federal officials will begin testing the bulk samples of unpasteurized milk from dairy processing facilities across the U.S. for the bird flu virus, which has been found in cattle in 15 states.

Industrial farms are particularly vulnerable to foodborne illnesses that can sicken thousands of consumers & disrupt supply chains.

#Protip: A short food chain is safer! Eating seasonally/ locally reduces dependency on industrial farms & strengthens local food systems! See you at market?

This is reason #7937 to shop locally! A short food supply chain is a safe food supply chain. When you purchase food grown, raised, and made by people you know, you can ask the farmers what they to keep their food safe, something you can't do supermarket! πŸ₯•
