Townsquare Sunday: Coastal Foodshed

It seems like everyone is talking about eating healthier. In this week's Townsquare Sunday, we'll meet two women who are working to make that happen.

Kim Ferreira and Stephanie Perks join WBSM's Jim Phillips to discuss their new organization, Coastal Foodshed. Their mission is to bring more local food into Greater New Bedford.

The group is already managing four Farmer's Markets in the city, and plan to expand their Farm Stand program into neighborhoods throughout New Bedford.

Kim and Stephanie also share their long-range goals to make healthy foods available to all.

Townsquare Sunday with Jim Phillips can be heard each Sunday at 6 a.m. on WBSM 1420 and WBSM.com. Townsquare Sunday is a weekly public affairs program highlighting non-profits and community organizations in the Greater New Bedford area.
