ENCOURAGING STATE AGENCIES AND BUSINESSES WITHIN THE STATE TO PURCHASE DELAWARE-GROWN FOODS FROM STATE AGRICULTURE AND AQUACULTURE OPERATIONS.

This Concurrent Resolution encourages institutions, agencies, entities, and businesses that operate within Delaware, to purchase Delaware-grown food and value-added items. The Resolution also directs the Delaware Council on Farm and Food Policy to work with state agencies, higher education institutions, and other partners to prepare a report outlining current local procurement efforts to support a locally sourced food economy in Delaware, and to submit the report to the Governor and the members of the General Assembly by June 30, 2024. In addition, any updates on efforts must be submitted by December 31, 2024.
