Food Tank Summit

What Will the 2024 Election Mean for the Good Food Movement?

The San Diego Food + Wine Festival is thrilled to welcome Food Tank to San Diego ahead of 2024 presidential election for an impactful discussion on the future of food on a national level and in our local community.

Food Tank Summits bring together the greatest thought leaders in the food movement, including chefs, farmers, civic leaders, activists, authors, and advocates, for discussions aimed to inspire, motivate, and activate positive transformation in food production and consumption.

Let’s come together to shape the future of food!

About Food Tank

Food Tank is a global community that inspires, motivates, and activates positive transformation in how we produce and consume food.

We’re good as a global economy at filling people up, but we are not good at nourishing eaters. What if we placed value on crop and livestock systems that are healthy for people and the planet? That provide delicious, nutrient-dense food, that protect workers and the environment, that are regenerative and give back more than they take? A food system that carefully accounts for externalities and makes it more profitable to be sustainable?

Food Tank is for farmers and producers, policy makers and government leaders, researchers and scientists, academics and journalists, and the funding and donor communities to collaborate on providing sustainable solutions for our most pressing environmental and social problems.
