Since our early days in 1978, CAFF has been a partnership forged between farmers and their communities. Today, our organization is empowered and guided by individual farmers and volunteers across California working to help us build a better food system for all. For more information about our Board of Directors, Policy Committee, Partner Farmsand other community members, click on the tabs and photos below.

The farmers in our 2023-2028 Strategic Plan reflect the trusted relationships we’ve built with farmers across the state and our evolving organization which places equity in California agriculture front and center.
