RFSI Data Gathering & Listening Session – Clovis, Fresno

June 10 @ 11:00 am - 1:00 pm

Free

Join us in Clovis for a meeting to discuss building strong and adaptable food system infrastructure!

Led by the California Department of Food and Agriculture (CDFA), the Resilient Food System Infrastructure Mapping (RFSI) project focuses on enhancing resilience across the middle of the food supply chain by supporting local and regional producers with an emphasis on small and underserved businesses. The initiative seeks to expand capacity for the aggregation, processing, manufacturing, storing, transporting, wholesaling, and distribution of locally and regionally produced food products, build resilience in the middle of the food supply chain, provide more and better markets to small farms and food businesses, support the development of value-added products for consumers, fair prices, and fair wages, and to create new and safe job opportunities.

By creating more and better market opportunities and new streams of revenue to small and mid-sized agricultural producers this program will also result in thriving local communities, strengthen food security, and promote fair economic opportunities. Together with Roots of Change (ROC), Institute of the Environment (UC Davis), and infrastructure financing experts, this project will serve to improve supply chain resilience for small and mid-size regional producers, positively impacting historically disadvantaged communities.
