New England State Food System Planners Partnership is pleased to announce that we will be hiring a Project Director to lead the New England Feeding New England project to the next phase.
The Project Director will advance the goal of moving the region to 30% regional food production for regional food consumption by 2030. They will lead core partners in efforts to convene public, private, and nonprofit entities across the New England area to understand key issues and take high-priority actions to address them. Intended outcomes will include state-level and regional policy and investment decisions that will lead to shortened food supply chains and will increase the amount of food that is both produced and consumed in New England.
