4 Food and Beverage Guide
On behalf of the Montgomery County, Maryland Food Council, we are proud to release the third edition of the Food & Beverage Guide, which highlights the diverse array of food and beverages produced in farms and kitchens in our County or made by businesses headquartered here.
Eating & drinking locally benefits our economy, environment, & health Encouraging residents and businesses to eat and drink locally is central to our mission to strengthen connections between County food and beverage businesses, farms, buyers, and retailers to increase awareness and consumption of local products. Eating and drinking locally brings significant economic, health, and environmental benefits to our County. Forty-six percent of dollars spent at local independent retailers are recirculated within the local economy, compared to 13% of dollars spent at chain retailers. Twice as much money stays in the community when we buy locally at farmers markets and CSAs, compared to shopping at chain grocery stores.
Support MoCo Made businesses: owned by residents & creating jobs in our communities All businesses in this Guide participate in the Food Council’s MoCo Made initiative, developed in partnership with the Montgomery County Economic Development Corporation to increase the visibility of our local food and beverage sectors. Look for MoCo Made window decals, shelf labels and stickers at farmers markets, farms, supermarkets, and other retail locations around the County, and continue to eat and drink locally!
Join our effortsThe Food Council is an independent nonprofit connecting individuals and organizations committed to cultivating a robust, sustainable, and equitable food system in Montgomery County. The Food Council was formed in 2011 and has 25 members including chefs, food entrepreneurs, and representatives of local government, nonprofits, and business. We invite you to join the Food Council’s efforts by participating in one of our working groups: Environmental Impact, Food Economy, Food Literacy and Food Recovery and Access. All groups meet monthly and are open to the public. Visit mocofoodcouncil.org/priorities/ to learn more.
Thank you and cheers!
