UC campuses are supporting the local economy, offering more healthy meal options to campus diners, and reducing the environmental impact of their foodservice operations.
Sustainable campus food systems projects include introducing local, organic, and socially just food into campus dining halls and cafes, composting food waste, donating un-used food, and planting student-operated organic gardens on or near campus.
UC is currently developing a sustainable foodservice policy to institutionalize current best practices and coordinate efforts throughout the 10 campus system.
More information on UC's sustainable food system initiatives coming soon.
