About the Gathering

The Annual Gathering for San Diego County Food Vision 2030 takes place every fall, featuring inspirational speakers, interactive sessions, open space for dialogue and networking, and local food.

At this year’s Annual Gathering, we’re expecting over 500 San Diegans to come together and share stories and ideas for how we can invest in our local food economy, steward agricultural land and soils, elevate wages and working conditions for food and farm workers, center equity, community ownership, and cooperation in our food system, and more. These are key elements of San Diego County Food Vision 2030—our region’s shared vision, plan, and movement to cultivate a healthier, more sustainable, and more just food system.

The goal of the Gathering is to provide an inclusive and inspiring space for those working to cultivate justice, fight climate change, and build resilience in their communities—whether through transforming the food system, or leading other movements for social change.
