Local food systems may be able to respond more nimbly to marketplace needs because of their short supply chains and local marketing focus. In 2020, 147,307 farmers nationwide produced and sold $9 billion of local food — a 3%
increase in total sales from 2015 — according to U.S. Department of Agriculture's Local Food Marketing Practices Survey.

In Missouri, value-added goods represented 76% of local food sales, compared to 44% for the U.S.

Fall isn't just the best time to harvest apples; it's also the best time to order apple trees for spring planting. Planting disease-resistant cultivars is recommended to ensure a healthy tree and to limit diseases and powdery mildew but if you wait until spring to order them, the inventory could be limited.
