Case Study: Feeding the Community in a Time of Need: The AMI Farm at Augusta Health
Augusta Health, Fishersville, Virginia
In the Shenandoah Valley of Virginia, Augusta Health partnered with the Allegheny Mountain Institute (AMI) to create an on-campus farm. The AMI Farm at Augusta Health provides food for use at the hospital, serves as a hub for nutrition and sustainable agriculture education and offers nutrient-dense foods to community members facing chronic illness or limited food access. During the COVID-19 pandemic, the hospital has used data analytics derived from social determinants of health screening to drive outreach in the community focused on food access and other initiatives.
