The MendoLake Food Hub aggregates and distributes produce from small farms around Lake and Mendocino Counties. Thanks to grant funding from the California Department of Food and Agriculture, we started operating in 2015 as a program of North Coast Opportunities with the mission of increasing the economic viability of local farms and increasing local food access in our community. We do this by providing farmers access to a shared sales and distribution network which serves wholesale buyers like grocery stores, schools, and restaurants.
