SUMMARY:CEC Webinar Series: Creating a Shock-Proof Local Food System
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Over the last few months\, we’ve witnessed in real time how shocks to the globalized food system impact one of the most basic human rights: the right to healthy\, accessible food.

We’ll also discuss the work of the Santa Barbara County Food Action Network to equitably stitch together the torn fabrics of our food system – from local farmers and fishermen\, to local restaurants and distributors.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row gap=”35″][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_column_text]\nWHEN & WHERE\nWednesday\, June 24\, 2020\n11:30am–12:30pm\nZoom \nEMCEE\nLaura Capps\nPresident of the Board of Education\, Santa Barbara Unified School District\nPast President of the Board\, Community Environmental Council[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_column_text]\nSPEAKERS\nJulia Blanton\nFood Rescue Program Coordinator\, Community Environmental Council \nAllegra Roth\nFood & Climate Program Manager\, Community Environmental Council \nShakira Miracle\nExecutive Director\, Santa Barbara County Food Action Network \n[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]\nEvent is free\, but registration is required. \n[/vc_column_text]REGISTER FOR THIS FREE EVENT [/vc_column][/vc_row]

A networking session will provide time to seek out new partnerships and opportunities to support each other.  \nThe event is being organized by the Community Environmental Council\, the Foodbank of Santa Barbara County\, and the the Santa Barbara Foundation. Co-sponsors are Santa Barbara Food Alliance and the Santa Barbara Permaculture Network. \nThe Santa Barbara County Food Action Plan is a community-driven strategic plan that assesses and provides recommendations for how we grow\, distribute\, consume\, and dispose of food. The Foodbank of Santa Barbara County and the Community Environmental Council spearheaded the project\, with major support from the Santa Barbara Foundation. Community gatherings are an essential component of the Food Action Plan\, which is designed to create a more resilient food system that supports a healthy economy\, healthy people\, and a healthy environment.
