Homegrown Minneapolis Food Council
The Homegrown Minneapolis Food Council (HMFC) expands our community’s ability to grow, process, distribute, eat and compost more healthy, sustainable, locally grown foods. HMFC strives for diverse and balanced representation and makes every effort to ensure that concerns represented and addressed reflect the diverse viewpoints and interests of the Minneapolis community as a whole.
The Board consists of 25 members: 15 community members, 6 city representatives, one Minneapolis Park & Recreation Board (MPRB) staff representative, one community member appointed by MPRB, one Minneapolis Public Schools (MPS) staff representative, and one community member appointed by MPS.
The Board uses the City's open appointments process.
