The California Department of Food and Agriculture (CDFA) is committed to helping all Californians access healthy and nutritious California-grown food. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the CDFA Inspection Services Division (ISD), food access work includes Office of Farm to Fork <\/a>grants facilitating farm to school, urban agriculture, refrigeration equipment for corner stores to store produce, and coupons to double the dollars low-income shoppers may spend on California-grown fresh fruits, vegetables and nuts. The Farm to School Program<\/a> also now has employees in eight regional California Farm to School Network collaboratives facilitating relationships with partners across the school food ecosystem, supporting California Farm to School Incubator Grantees<\/a>, organizing regional convenings and events, and providing value chain coordination for schools, producers and partners looking to sell food to school and institutional buyers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The ISD Direct Marketing Program<\/a> also facilitates California shoppers having direct access to purchasing produce from their local farmers at Certified Farmers’ Markets throughout the state.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
