Today, at Little House Green Grocery Governor Terry McAuliffe signed executive order 34 establishing the Commonwealth Council on Bridging the Nutritional Divide, which will be chaired by First Lady Dorothy McAuliffe. “A critical component in building a new Virginia economy is ensuring that no Virginia child or family goes hungry. By using the assets unique to Virginia, we can bridge this nutritional divide, put more Virginians on pathways to success, and at the same time grow our local agriculture economies. I look forward to the great work the Council will do to benefit our communities and all Virginia children and families. -Governor Terry McAuliffe “With the formation of this council, we are making clear our belief that, in order to cultivate and sustain economic success, all Virginians must have access to nutritious foods that will enable them to learn, grow, and thrive. With the formation of this Council we’re saying enough with the tightrope, now we start building a bridge.” -First Lady Dorothy McAuliffe Read more here: https://governor.virginia.gov/newsroom/newsarticle?articleId=7309
