This articulates why our mission is so important. Feeling "lost, forgotten and left behind" is a sentiment shared by far too many community members in Southeastern San Diego.

Sharing this story from our friends at San Diego Food System Alliance. Please watch, there's some good information here! Thanks NBC 7 San Diego for putting this together!

What do you believe our region should do to make food healthier, more sustainable, and more just? Our friends at @San Diego Food System Alliance have developed a set of potential strategies for transforming San Diego County's food system, based on the input of thousands of San Diegansincluding experts, food system workers, and residents. Now, it's time to review the strategies. Take the short survey at engage.sdfsa.org/strategies to share which ones are most important to you. #sdfoodvision2030

See the flyer below for more information, and we hope to see you there!

Even though we're still dealing with some heat during the days, the nights are starting to get longer and cooler. Time to plant some cool-season veggies (if you haven't already!): broccoli, Brussels sprouts, beets, cabbage, carrots, cauliflower, endive, fava beans, kale, kohlrabi, lettuce, parsley, peas, potatoes (white), spinach and turnips. What are you growing?

Bro Salwazi talked today at our Fannie Lou Hamer Virtual Birthday Celebration about the importance of Fannie Lou Hamer. He also discusses the connection with October being Breast Cancer Awareness month, as Fannie Lou Hamer succumbed to breast cancer many years ago, and his wife is undergoing treatment now. A very powerful, moving, and important message. #FLH2020 #Foodjustice #breastcancerawarenessmonth
