Spring Blooms for Your Food Leadership As the first flowers start blooming and Mother Nature awakens from her winter slumber, I'm reminded of the vital role leadership plays in the food industry. Just like a garden needs attentive gardeners to cultivate vibrant blooms, a thriving food system requires innovative and responsible leaders. True leaders in the food world nurture their organizations like gardeners tend to their plants. They provide the right environment, resources, and care to allow their teams to flourish and reach their full potential. They remove barriers and create opportunity for growth. At the same time, great food leaders look outward and upward, recognizing that their businesses exist within larger communities and ecosystems. The smartest ones operate in harmony with the environment through sustainable practices that minimize impact. They give back through food donations, community partnerships, and fighting for a more equitable food system. As you enjoy the colors and scents of this spring season, I encourage you to recognize the food leaders and organizations truly "blooming" in positive ways. Look for those cultivating vibrant communities, nourishing their teams, respecting the planet, and using business as a force for good. They are the quintessential spring blooms we should be celebrating. Who are the blossoming food leaders inspiring you this season? I'd love to hear your thoughts! #foodcareers#foodjobs#growafoodcareer#gratitude#resilience#opportunities#wisdom#foodcareerleadership#developmentinfoodcareer#foodcareercommunication#humanrelationsinfood#foodjobsresume#interviewskillsfoodcareers#interviewskillsfoodjobs#softskills#networkingfoodcareer#foodcareerconsulting#foodcareerpresentations#managingupandallaround#communicatingideasinafoodcareer #foodcareerguide#careergrowth

Today we're talking about who has access to full-service supermarkets in America's cities, suburbs, small towns and rural communities. According to The Reinvestment Fund's "2023 Limited Supermarket Access Analysis Report," 8.5% of people in the US live in areas with limited access to full-service supermarkets. This means that families must travel further to get fresh foods, and it creates a barrier to adequate nutrition. This is the 10th year The Reinvestment Fund has published the "Supermarket Access Report," which provides data and context about grocery store access across the country. Here to discuss the latest figures is policy and analyst Michael Norton. Hosted by Kelly Brownell.
