The Good Food for All Agenda is a collective policy platform reflecting the power of food for community health, environmental stewardship and a fair economy, and represents the priorities of the broader food movement in Los Angeles.
Revised in 2017, the Good Food For All Agenda was created by collecting input from over 300 stakeholders, including local food advocates, farmers, gardeners, entrepreneurs, distributors, retailers, scientists, policymakers, advocates and residents throughout the Los Angeles County.
The original Good Food for All Agenda was created in 2010 through the efforts of the Food Policy Task Force convened by Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa.
We reside, work, and cultivate food
on unceded Indigenous homelands.
We acknowledge and honor the descendants of the Tongva, Kizh, and Gabrieleño peoples as the traditional land caretakers of Tovaangar (the Los Angeles Basin and the Southern Channel Islands). We pay our respects to the Honuukvetam (Ancestors), ‘Ahiihirom (Elders) and ‘Eyoohiinkem (our relatives/relations) past, present and emerging.
As part of a greater foodshed, we would also like to pay respect to and honor the Chumash, Tataviam, Serrano, Kitanemuk, ʔíviĨuqaletem, Acjachemen, Payómkawichum, and any other tribal group possibly not mentioned. As a Food Policy Council for Los Angeles we recognize this land acknowledgment is limited and engagement is an ongoing process of learning and accountability.
