Abstract

In a visit to the Food Bank of South Jersey, Governor Jon S. Corzine today encouraged continued partnerships between the states food banks and local farmers to bolster the local economy and New Jersey s agricultural community. The states six food banks receive the Governors Hunger Initiative funding, which requires that those organizations place a priority on purchasing locally produced foods. Special Thanks to Springdale Farm Market in Cherry Hill for letting us shoot video of their fields and operations.
