Local First Arizona Foundation

The vision of the Local First Arizona Foundation is to create an Arizona that is environmentally and economically sustainable and culturally diverse. Our projects include analyzing and changing local procurement policies so that Arizona owned companies are recognized; promoting Arizona agriculture and brainstorming ways to get locally produced food products into schools, restaurants and grocery stores; advocating for land use policies that encourage density, infill, and public transportation; encouraging adaptive reuse of historic and existing buildings; educating business owners and individuals about the impact of supporting locally owned businesses.
