NMFAPC

Farm to Table recognized the importance of policy and advocacy and with partner organizations and agencies created the New Mexico Food & Agriculture Policy Council (NMFAPC) which has been coordinated and resourced by Farm to Table since its inception. Though a program of Farm to Table, the Council is a true coalition, consisting of a diverse group of more than 75 organizations, agencies, and individuals representing rural, urban, and tribal communities and initiatives statewide. The Council focuses on state and federal policy and advocacy through the lens of our values and equity statements which were developed by the membership through our consensus-based decision-making approach. The NMFAPC is one of the longest running food policy councils in the country.

The mission of the New Mexico Food & Agriculture Policy Council is to advocate for food systems which strengthen our food and farm economies. This is achieved this through advocacy, education, and policy work. Through this process the Council strives to enhance the health and wellness of New Mexico’s people and communities, and to sustain natural resources.
