Regional & National Networking What is working & why?

Today’s Discussion Introduction: Vanessa Zajfen, CFJ Farm to Institution Program Coordinator Networks developed by UEPI & CFJ National Farm to School Network Healthy School Food Coalition Barriers & what is working Southern California GFN

National Farm to School Network BASIS: Coordinate & support the development of a rapidly growing movement. OBJECTIVE: Institutionalize and promote farm to school programs as viable models for improving the economic viability of family-scale farmers and supporting child nutrition efforts. TOOLS: National staff, RLAs & national partners /advisors, working framework around 5 programming priorities, pooled resources, website, consistent marketing & media identity, policy advocacy. SUCCESS: Unifying identity, outreach potential, shared tools & strategies & more F2S programs.

Healthy School Food Coalition SCOPE: Regionally specific, LAUSD specific. BASIS: Developed from direct need for quality food & improved food environments. OBJECTIVE: Develop & implement comprehensive food and nutrition policies in the LAUSD through community organizing. TOOLS: Community mobilization (regular meetings & trainings), focused goals, resources (newsletter), participation in LAUSD committees, identity & community. SUCCESS: Soda & junk food ban, healthier & vegetarian lunch options, & student representation on menu selection committees.

Barriers in Network Development Scope of network: geography & stakeholders Allocation of resources. Disparity in skill levels & regional differences. Establishing effective communication strategies. Goals & priorities Grant deliverables influence network development & goals. Reaching consensus on mission, vision, and goals. Developing “buy-in”, participant-driven while maintaining focus & providing useful services to members.

What’s working? Identify members’ strengths & build on them. Reduce redundancy, identify available resources within the network. Set realistic goals & expectations for network and its members. Fulfill a need & provide a service to members. Trust, flexibility, and embrace collaborative working model on everything. Building each other into grants!

Southern California GFN SCOPE: Regional; Ventura/Santa Barbara to San Diego and Inland. BASIS: Develop concrete solutions to an identified need and need to bridge industry & GF advocates. Does industry perceive this need, uncertain about industry desire to work collaboratively? OBJECTIVE: Develop arsenal of tools to assist and/or allow industry to develop local food solutions, primarily through development of business services and providing TA & O. TOOLS: and framework is TBA… SUCCESS: Members, scope and singular focus.

Challenges thus far for SCGFN… Reduce redundancy in network development in CA. Physical coordination amongst members. Do we rely on web based social networks? Which one? How to successfully integrate member projects & GFN objectives? How to marry unlikely bed fellows?...prove our value, need & strength to industry.
