At the inaugural "Connecting Partners for a Stronger U.S. Food System – Southeast Regional Convening," leaders from across the food sector came together to discuss the future of a more resilient, equitable, and sustainable food system.

From workforce stability and food access to cross-sector collaboration and community impact, the conversations reflected both the urgency of today’s challenges and the opportunity to solve them together.

What stood out most was the momentum, meaningful dialogue, new partnerships, and a shared commitment to action.

We’re proud to continue building this growing network alongside so many dedicated partners shaping the future of food. And this is just the beginning, additional convenings are being planned across the country in the months ahead. Stay tuned.

If you weren’t in the room this time, we hope you’ll join us for what comes next!

Some of the Southeast’s most influential food system leaders are coming together at Emory University on Thursday, April 30.

Connecting Partners for a Stronger Food System is a unique convening focused on the nontraditional partnerships needed to transform our region.

From farmworkers and growers to distributors, researchers, and nonprofit advocates, this gathering is intentionally bridging sectors that don’t often share space, building a more connected and resilient food system.

The strong interest highlights just how important this moment is:

• Regional Leadership: Leaders across the Southeast are identifying shared priorities and real opportunities for collaboration.
• Critical Dialogue: Conversations will explore the complexity of our food system, innovative funding models, and hands-on partnership building.

With space nearly full, one thing is clear...this is just the beginning.
