with Connie Manes, Executive Director to Kent Land Trust

Land trusts are naturally positioned to lead the way in increasing access to food and can make a difference for their most vulnerable neighbors. Learn about how Kent Land Trust partners with Marble Valley Farm and Kent’s Food Bank to support food access.
