The NC 10% Campaign is a collaborative statewide initiative led by the Center for Environmental Farming Systems (CEFS) and North Carolina Cooperative Extension promoting locally-grown/caught food, farmers and fishers, as well as the businesses and people who prepare, distribute, and sell food grown in North Carolina. The NC 10% Campaign encourages NC individuals, businesses, organizations, and institutions to spend at least 10% of their food dollars on NC-grown and caught foods. It is estimated that North Carolinians spend over $35 billion on food each year. If 10% of those purchases were from NC farms, $3.5 billion would stay within North Carolina’s statewide economy.
The Campaign was started in July 2010 with the aim of creating demand for local foods, giving an attainable goal of 10% locally-grown/raised/caught, & stimulating economic opportunities for NC farmers & fisheries through interactive local foods maps, grower-buyer connections events, and tracking local food spending by campaign members. Today, the NC 10% Campaign focuses on:
-
Increasing local food procurement in county-based institutions like our Farm to Senior Services program
-
Supporting county Extension offices produce their own local food education campaign through our handbook and resources
-
Providing resources to support local food outreach for counties, cities, farmers markets, retail stores, and more
