Local food network strategy

To develop Tartu (EE) county’s food region, the ‘Tartu County Food Strategy 2022-2030’ and a food network were created. Over 100 representatives from different sectors contribute to the strategy process, forming an expanding local food network that includes farmers, SMEs, and large companies (producers, caterers, retailers), universities, R&D institutions, local governments, event organisers, and NGOs. Tartu County has launched information platforms for both internal and external communication, organised capacity-building events, and started to build a brand for the food region. Numerous activities and projects are underway in the food region, to boost innovation and create a healthy and sustainable food system.
