To learn how legislation and legislators stack up on food and farming issues, read the CA Food Policy Council’s report https://org2.salsalabs.com/o/6083/images/CAFoodPolRepr7sm-1.pdf It is the state’s first review of food and farm legislation with an eye to reform. It calls on the Legislature do much more. Better policies will make food and farms solutions to many challenges in the 
21st century.
The CA Food Policy Council is led by Michael Dimmock (at the left in the photo), president of Roots of Change, a generous and supportive grantor to Alchemist CDC. “The California Food Policy Council is a collaborative of local food policy groups working to ensure that California’s food system reflects the needs of all of its communities. The purpose of the California Food Policy Council (CAFPC) is to build the capacity of local food policy bodies to find common ground on policy priorities, generate public support for those policies, educate policymakers on issues in our food system, and advocate for food systems change in California.” For more info: http://www.rootsofchange.org/content/activities-2/california-food-policy-council
