Food is a basic need for people’s health and wellness, and it reflects our cultural identity. San Diego county has a robust food system, with a strong farm and fishing industry, over 15,000 diverse food facilities, a year-round growing season, and more than 30 farmers markets.

But food security only exists when everyone has regular access to enough food to meet their needs.

In June 2024, the San Diego County Board of Supervisors (Board) directed the development of a Food Justice Community Action Plan (FJCAP) to identify actions the County could take in the near-term to improve food access and reduce food insecurity, as well as increase collaboration between the County and the community. While not comprehensive, the action plan integrates community ideas into a next steps-guide to bolster momentum for collaborative change to improve food access and reduce food insecurity in the region.

Community participation continues to be central to this effort, and your voice matters.

Stay tuned as the County works to create a more just, equitable, and sustainable food system for all! Below are current and upcoming opportunities, including Community Meetings and information on Related Efforts.
