Question 7

1. A regional food hub is a centrally located facility with a business management structure facilitating the aggregation, storage, processing, distribution, and/or marketing of locally/regionally produced food products. They are important because that is where our food is shipped to and stored.
2. The closest that you would find USDA approved poultry to John Carroll would be at Broom’s Bloom Dairy;

1700 South Fountain Green Road  Bel Air , MD  21015. The closest place that you would find beef would be at The Mill of Bel Air; 424 North Main Street  Bel Air, MD  21014. The closest place that you could find vegetables would be The Mill of Bel Air; 424 North Main Street  Bel Air, MD  21014.
3. The John Carroll School could easily achieve getting these fresh foods everyday. They could go to the mill in Bel Air and pick up both the meat and vegetables, then the can go to Broom's Bloom and pick up the poultry. We could advertise these things by putting up posters and creating fundraisers to raise money for all of the fresh food. I think that this would be a great project to try to achieve, and not just for me but for everyone in the John Carroll community.
