You believe that multinational corporate interests are extracting profit from farmers, ranchers, and workers while harming the land, animals, and rural communities
You believe that we’re stronger together, and that discrimination against Black farmers, Indigenous communities, and people of color are symptoms of the same extractive mindset
You believe we cannot solve one of these issues without considering all of them, and that we can only achieve a more just food system by elevating the work of groups experiencing hardships, generating solutions on the ground, and developing a common narrative that brings diverse stakeholders together
You want to connect with other members of the movement who hold the same values
You’re committed to achieving a food and agriculture system that works for everyday people rather than a handful of powerful corporations
You’re excited to perform the responsibilities of a Local Leader and make meaningful change for farmers, ranchers, rural communities, and people who eat
