Recap: L2T Strategic Planning Day

On June 6th, Land to Table staff and Board members gathered for a full-day strategic planning retreat to reflect on where we’ve been, where we are now, and where we want to go over the next 3–5 years. Together, we explored the changing conditions shaping our food system—from climate change and affordability pressures to evolving opportunities for local food infrastructure and regional collaboration.

The day focused on identifying the strategic priorities that will guide our work through 2030, while also reflecting on how we want to work together as an organization. Through thoughtful discussion, we revisited our values, explored the operating principles that guide us in navigating complexity, and considered how Land to Table can continue to strengthen both the local food economy and community food security.

As we move into the next phase of drafting our Strategic Plan, we are excited by the strong sense of alignment around building shared infrastructure, strengthening relationships, supporting community leadership, and creating a more resilient and connected regional food system. We are also feeling pretty stoked about our new board members and growing team! We look forward to sharing our published plan and the resulting work in the months ahead.
