You Might Be a Local Leader If…
You believe that powerful corporate interests extract profit from farmers, ranchers, and workers—while harming the land, animals, and rural communities.
You believe discrimination and unequal access—especially for farmers and rural communities who’ve been shut out for generations—are part of the same extractive system.
You believe these challenges are connected—and that we win a fairer food system by listening to the people most affected, supporting on-the-ground solutions, and speaking with a common message.
You want to connect with other members of the community who share these values.
You’re committed to a food and agriculture system that works for everyday people—not just a handful of powerful corporations.
You’re excited to step into the role of a Local Leader and make meaningful change for farmers, ranchers, rural communities, and consumers.
