The CFSA at a glance:
We are a state-wide network of dedicated stakeholders committed to creating broad system change and advancing a sustainable and just food system in Connecticut.
The CFSA is committed to changing the food system to benefit the triple bottom line:
1. Equity – everyone has access to safe, nutritious, culturally appropriate, and affordable food
2. Environment – stewardship of soil, water, air and energy resources is institutionalized as an integral part of the food system
3. Economy – the food supply chain supports many vibrant and varied small businesses that provide sustainable livelihoods
We develop our network by:
- Providing support to eight sub-networks:
- Farm to School
- Food Waste
- Hunger
- Incentive Programs
- Mobile Markets
- New Farmers
- School Garden Resource Center
- Youth and Food Justice
- Organizing 2-3 networking gatherings per year
- The Connecticut Food System Leaders Listserv
