Regional Council of Central Finland's work with local food

As part of Joint Action Plan (action number 2.2.2) and Regional Action Plan work, Regional Council of Central Finland has put a lot of effort on local food and local food chains. This spring we participated in social media campaign that focused on sharing information for consumers about local food and why it is beneficial to support local food producers by buying their products. These four pictures were used for raising awareness and encouraging consumers to buy more local food.

Unfortunately, texts in pictures are only in Finnish, but we still wanted to share them; as an example what we have done under Joint action 2.2.2. Key messages are translated under each picture.
