The Rhode Island Food Policy Council has selected 11 new members to join the organization for two-year terms.
The new members bring a wide range of backgrounds, geographic locations, and food system expertise and interests.
“I am thrilled with our newest group of council members,” says Thea Upham, who led the recruitment and selection work as chair of the Council’s governance committee. “This year’s recruitment process was incredibly challenging because we had so many qualified applicants. COVID-19 really exposed the importance of our local food system by highlighting its weaknesses and gaps as well as new opportunities for collaboration. Each of these new members demonstrated their enthusiasm for working in service to their communities and their commitment to working across sectors to advance the RIFPC mission.”

SAN DIEGO COUNTY, Calif. San Diego County is home to numerous hiking trails from the coast to the desert. Being an avid hiker myself, I see a lot of foot traffic, and often times, trash! Hiking is a way to get into nature. I think that s why people leave, and go to hike and do these things. So, when you go into nature, it really should be kept that way, said Lauren Short, Community Program Manager for I Love a Clean San Diego.
Lauren and I sat down to talk about our love of hiking and desire to keep the trails clean in an effort to not throw off the balance of nature. As San Diegans, we need to remember what we leave behind on the trails greatly disrupts the harmony of the biodiversity in our County, in ways we might not even think of.
