Elly Brown is the executive director of the San Diego Food
System Alliance, a network of more than 100 organizations working
to make our current food system more equitable, healthy, and
sustainable through collaboration, policy change, education, and
community empowerment.
We talk about the launch of The San Diego Food System Alliance Food
Vision 2030 with the understanding that the time to reimagine and
reconfigure our food system is now. There is no question that the
current path of our food system is unsustainable and
transformations must take root at the community level.
Decisions made about food have a powerful ripple effect in all
aspects of society. Changing the way we grow food, move food, share
food, and think about food ultimately changes the way we treat the
planet and each other.
On October 22nd, Food Vision 2030 Annual Gathering will be held.
Location to be determined.

We are proud to support and recommend Kitchens for Good. Kitchens for Good's mission is to break the cycles of food waste, poverty, and hunger, through innovative programs in workforce training, healthy food production, and social enterprise. The program is a tuition-free, certified culinary apprenticeship program that trains individuals with barriers to employment to launch their career in the culinary and hospitality industry. The program specifically serves individuals who are experiencing significantly high unemployment rates: formerly incarcerated adults, foster youth transitioning out of the system, survivors of domestic violence, individuals with mental health disorders, and individuals with histories of substance abuse.
