The groups will establish projects, policies, and partnerships and will conduct research, inform and recommend policy change, and develop initiatives that improve our community. If you are passionate about changing the food system or currently work with an organization or business that is tackling these issues, please come to this meeting to get involved and learn how we can collaborate!
