Subject: Comfood is an email discussion list on all aspects of community food systems and beyond.

Description: COMFOOD is an electronic mail list created to link individuals and organizations involved with or interested in community food security. The server has many broad purposes:

1. COMFOOD-L is available to all subscribers to exchange ideas and information on community food related topics. Information about CFS-related activities of other organizations, agencies, etc. may also be posted by the Coalition or by other groups.
