Kane County Development and Community Services A Community Food Hub Project: Connecting Local Growers, Wholesalers and Institutional Buyers Matt Tansley Land Use Planner Kane County Development and Community Services November 3, 2017

Growing for Kane Initiative and Food Hub Feasibility Recommendation HIA REPORT RECOMMENDATION Recommendation Result Kane County should work with Northern Illinois Food Bank (NIFB) and Kane County Farm Bureau to study the feasibility of locating a food hub. Farmers have motivation to grow more produce with centralized cleaning, packaging and distribution available off farm.

The Food Hub Feasibility Study What we Learned about the Market… Interested producers/farmers account for: 850 acres of current fruit & vegetable production 160 acres of potential expansion Interested wholesale buyers account for: $53 million in spending on whole produce $26 million in spending on processed produce $31-$35 million in spending on meat, dairy, eggs

Growers’ Top Barriers for Entering the Wholesale Market (Feasibility Study grower survey results) Fair pricing Cost, time, labor to implement GAP protocols Risk of not selling what is grown Access to post-harvest handling facilities (cooling, washing, grading, packing)

Operator Recruitment & Public / Private Partnership Identify a qualified operator to run and/or own the hub Preference for operator experienced working with farmers Selection criteria to include adherence to recommendations of the Feasibility Study Transition of project management from the County to the operator
