VIDEO: Nurture Food Access for All This Holiday Season and Beyond | The pandemic has deepened inequities in the food system, especially in terms of food security, but through it all, the farmers market has been a lifeline between small California farms and San Francisco families in need. When you donate to CUESA, you are contributing to a resilient and inclusive local food system that supports the livelihoods of family farmers and ensures everyone has access to nutritious food. This month, we are shining a light on people who nourish our community and help sustain this vision. In this new video from CUESA, you’ll hear from our neighbors and farmers at CUESA’s Mission Community Market about how Market Match—and your support of this vital program—has made a difference in their lives. | |
