Overview
On November 7-8, 2025, the Rural Justice Summit (RJS) will bring together and center farmers/land ecosystem tenders in both rural and urban areas of California.
Hosted by the California Farmer Justice Collaborative in Merced, CA, the Summit seeks to secure relationships with rural and urban farmers, land tenders, food producers, to increase our knowledge on the importance of connections as it pertains to our watershed, foodshed, energy shed, social justice shed and beyond.
The Rural Justice Summit is designed to uplift current issues facing historically underserved communities that steward the land in California, and bring together local leaders innovating solutions to those challenges. Through the tracks outlined in the RJS Ecosystem, the Summit will facilitate the sharing of diverse stories, struggles and resources from herbalists, cooks, farmers, aggregators, distributors, specialty crop cultivators, youth, activists, disabled/differently-abled land tenders, artists and accomplices.
