ALL IN Eats Website (soft) Launch!
Join us in celebrating the (soft) launch of the ALL IN Eats website! There you can learn more about what a Circular Food Economy means for Alameda County, and how we think about farming, our food workforce, food distribution, food as medicine, and where we plan to go from here.
Note: We say “soft” launch because it’s a work in progress - and we’d love your input! Please take a moment or two to check it out and email maryruthbelsey.priebe@acgov.org with any suggestions you may have.
We also want to find ways to feature and spotlight all of the amazing work your organizations and people are doing! To that end, with your help we’ll develop an ALL IN Eats Partnership model in the coming months which will define what our ALL IN Eats Working Group Members and ALL IN Eats as a project can expect from each other. Stay tuned for more on that in the near future!
