Many people within the City of Melbourne face daily challenges in accessing enough healthy food for a healthy life. Most of us are not eating enough fruit and vegetables to meet our nutritional needs and an increasing number of people are living in densely populated areas where growing food is more challenging.
The challenges faced by some in accessing sufficient food may worsen over time as natural resource constraints and climate stresses affect our food supply, leading to increases in the cost of food along with other essential household costs such as petrol and utility costs.
