Consuming Health: Local Innovations in Accessing Healthy Food

With the rise in popularity of channels like The Food Network, the explosion of food blogging websites and the arrival of “foodie” as a household term, food has taken a larger role in popular culture. However, despite this burgeoning food fanfare, a closer look at California’s food system reveals that inequity in access to healthy food choices still persists in certain regions, maintaining a situation ripe for preventable diseases.

In an effort to explore this disparity and promote solutions, The California Endowment’s CenterScene Public Programs invites you to a panel discussion that will highlight local efforts underway to make the healthy choice the easy choice everywhere. Panelists will explore the food system at large, from sustainable agriculture to innovative distribution models, and alternatives to traditional retail models.
