Willamette Farm and Food Coalition Seeks New Board Members

Willamette Farm and Food Coalition has announced that it is looking to add three new members to the organization’s Board of Directors.

Speaking to it’s mission the organization says, “We envision a secure, sustainable, and inclusive food system as one in which our farms and food businesses are both ecologically and economically viable, our agricultural lands are supporting a much larger percentage of Lane County’s food needs, and all members of our community have access to locally grown and raised foods. We believe that a strong local food system contributes to the integral health of our entire community and we work to facilitate greater understanding of the social, economic, and environmental impacts of our food choices.”

Priority will be given to BIPOC candidates, candidates with ties to farmworker or historically disadvantaged and under-served communities, and those with expertise in grant writing and fundraising/development- but all are encouraged to apply.
