San Diego Food System Alliance is a coalition with a mission to develop and maintain an equitable, healthy and sustainable food system. The Alliance is a network of 60+ organizations. Our Voting Members consists of more than 30 members committed to changes across the food system, including: distribution, health, food security, philanthropy, production, education/ research and government. We aim to bring together a diverse set of actors to make thorough recommendations on improving our community food system. Our Working Groups focus on specific issues within the food system based on recommendations from the 2012 Urban-Rural Roundtable convened by Roots of Change, County of San Diego Supervisor Ron Roberts and City of San Diego Mayor Jerry Sanders. Our Working Groups emerge when there are opportunities timely for collaboration (champions, policy window, resources, etc). Our current Working Groups include: Food Recovery, Healthy Food Access, Urban Agriculture, Removing Barriers to Farming
