New England Village
Zone C between Milk St. and India St. SBN is excited to be partnering for the 12th year with Food Solutions New England (FSNE) to present The New England Village. The Village followed the announcement of FSNE’s 50 by 60 New England Food Vision at the 2014 Boston Local Food Festival. The Food Vision calls for our region to build the capacity to produce at least 50% of the food consumed in New England by 2060. The New England Village highlights our New England vendors as a sampling of how easy it is to support and celebrate our region’s interconnection, making a vision of 50 by 60 come to life! Spend time in the New England Food Vision Gallery, take a closer look at the Vision, and dream about what is next for our food system!
