Today, @mayorbmscott signed the Community Healthy Food Access Act into law!

No family in Baltimore should have to take two buses just to buy fresh vegetables. This law creates the Healthy Food Priority Area Grant Program, which will put real dollars behind the neighborhood grocers, co-ops, farmers' markets, and mobile vendors bringing fresh, affordable food to our communities.

It also gives residents a seat at the table, with annual listening sessions on pricing, products, and store operations.

Thank you to @mayorbmscott, my colleagues on the Council, and our partners at @blackyield, @blackchurchfsn, the Department of Planning, and BDC.
