OCFSN Equity Statement:
Oregon Community Food System Network (OCFSN) acknowledges that our food system is built and maintained on a foundation of oppression and systemic racism of Native peoples, people of color, and immigrants. Through a coordinated statewide network, we address this historic and systemic inequality in land ownership, food access, and labor by prioritizing the allocation of resources, decision making and power to historically excluded communities. We aim to hold ourselves accountable by building relationships, seeking inclusive participation, and practicing transparency. Note: This equity statement is a living document to help member organizations start conversations and reflect on Oregon’s history.
