Amplifying agroecology in Vermont: Principles and processes to foster food systems sustainability
Agroecology represents a model system that supports the environment by offering an approach to food production that enhances biodiversity, builds ecological resilience, improves soil diversity, reduces the use of natural resources, and provides a healthy environment for the planet. It is increasingly recognized as an effective system that generates a broad diversity of diets while supporting community building and women's empowerment. However, the agroecology approach is not yet widely approved in Vermont and the USA, despite its significant potential for supporting transitions to sustainable food systems in different contexts. This paper aims to demonstrate the importance of agroecology for the future of sustainable food systems in Vermont to assess and advance transformations towards sustainability.
