February 20, 2013 Roots of Change
February 15, 2013 — The Sacramento Region Food System Collaborative (FSC) held a regional Food Summit, State of the Regional Food System: Local Innovations. The SFSC sought to:
- Bring together community stakeholders on a shared vision for agriculture and food.
- Share a pathway for a sustainable food system through the Sacramento Region Food System Charter.
- Recognize the unique innovations emerging in the region.
The summit brought together community stakeholders to present the FSC’s charter, a set of guiding principles to create an equitable, sustainable and healthy food system for the region. Sacramento’s recent work illustrates the potential to unite a diverse coalition of stakeholders working on a board range of issues ranging from increasing access to healthy food in underserved communities to supporting the economic and environmental viability of agriculture in the region.
