Some U.S. hospitals are partnering with local farms to provide healthier, tastier food to patients by using fresh, locally sourced produce. These collaborations not only result in better meals for patients but also support local farmers by providing them with a stable market. Hospitals are also incorporating education about fresh produce, offering food and nutrition classes, and growing their own crops on-site to improve the health outcomes of their patients. Hospitals like UC Davis Medical Center, John Muir Medical Centers, and Lankenau Medical Center are leading the way in sourcing local, sustainable produce to provide healthy meals to patients.
