Community Farmers Markets Growing Climate Solutions in Georgia: A Climate Digest Interview
In Georgia, fresh local food is more than sustenance—it is an opportunity to advance climate action and equity.

In a recent conversation with Eriqah Vincent, longtime climate justice activist and host of the Georgia Climate Digest video series, Casey Hood, Director of Operations & Vendor Support, and Raevin Hawkins, Food Systems Innovation Manager, shared how Community Farmers Markets is reducing emissions, fighting food insecurity, and creating a sense of community.
