Local Food Hub: Growing Food For Health

Local Food Hub’s Fresh Farmacy connects farmers with health care providers in Virginia. Together, they provide fruit and vegetable “prescriptions” to clinic patients and their families who are at risk for lifestyle-related conditions and are ready to make a change.

This video features:

  • Miranda Trent, Nurse Practitioner, Starr Hill Health Center
