Union County’s food system has been an integral part of our community, particularly with a strong
agriculture industry. However, as we have recently experienced with the COVID-19 pandemic,
challenges to the system can occur unexpectedly.

In addition to local government oTcials, food pantry staff, teachers, faith leaders, restaurant owners,
