SMFSA Announces release of food policy brief

The San Mateo County Food System Alliance recently released this policy brief, Producing, Distributing, and Consuming Healthy Local Food: Ingredients for a Sustainable Food System, which describes six recommended actions to support a sustainable food system in your community/city. Recommendations include updating land use and other local policies to include support for urban agriculture and community gardens, adopting local food procurement policies, supporting local marketing initiatives such as As Fresh As It Gets, as well as examples of initiatives in other cities and counties.
