| See Your Impact! Community Is Essential: CUESA Impact Report 2020-2021 |
The period that our latest impact report covers, April 2020 through March 2021, put our communities to the test like never before. It brought us a global pandemic, a long overdue racial injustice reckoning, an economic recession, and devastating drought and wildfires. It also proved that resilience comes through people working together to upend broken systems and double down on solutions. More than ever, it reminded us what is essential to sustaining us: community.
This year was a testament to the power of you: farmers, food makers, chefs, and neighbors working together to create a powerful and resilient local food shed, where small, sustainable farms thrive and everyone has access to fresh, healthy food. Join us in looking back on how we met the moment together in CUESA’s 2020-2021 Impact Report » |
