Connecticut Food System Alliance is committed to changing the food system to benefit the three E’s:

Equity – everyone has access to safe, nutritious, culturally appropriate, and affordable food

Environment – stewardship of soil, water, air and energy resources is institutionalized as an integral part of the food system

Economy – the food supply chain supports many vibrant and varied small businesses that provide sustainable livelihoods
