Supply chain disruptions steadily increased this year and with each new hiccup, a new sector of food production or distribution has been impacted. Though each of these supply issues happens on their own scale, it’s clear they’re connected. That cargo ship stuck off the coast of Los Angeles is part of the reason your peanut butter is more expensive. Pull on a single loose thread and you can unravel the whole supply system.

The question this brings up for me is whether or not the disruptions affect local and regional food systems, and if so, how? Can local systems truly come online and alleviate some of these issues? The article goes into a number of areas and seems to spell out that these issues will be here for a while.
