Vermont Business Magazine The Vermont Farmers Food Center (VFFC), Rutland Regional Medical Center (RRMC), and Community Health Clinics of the Rutland Region (Community Health) are celebrating the Farmacy Project’s (Farmacy) tenth year this month.
Farmacy, which began at VFFC as Health Care Shares, is a produce prescription program that provides fresh locally grown produce to people facing chronic diet-related health conditions. The program was launched in 2015 with a grant from RRMC’s Bowse Health Trust grant to support this community model intersecting healthcare and local agriculture.
