This bill would help Massachusetts farms and local food systems handle supply shocks and climate pressures. It creates emergency food planning, grants for farm food-bank, and urban agriculture projects, and a fund to train new farmers. It expands farm-to-school and SNAP produce incentives, allows more agritourism, and tracks farmland better. Residents could see stronger local food access, more jobs, and better food security, while balancing farming with clean energy goals.
