The MFC Coalition Leadership Team is Gearing up!
Last week, the Milwaukee Food Council (MFC) brought together 17 community leaders at Village Farmstead in Oak Creek to help shape the policies, structures, and trainings that will guide our democratically run, community-led food system coalitions. We couldn’t be more grateful for the ideas, expertise and dedication they bring bring to the table.
MFC’s food-sector coalitions will bring together food system workers and consumers to build relationships, share knowledge across sectors, identify common challenges, and organize for collective action using a shared framework.
We’re building a movement rooted in community voice, shared leadership, and collective power to create a more equitable and sustainable local food system.

The MFC Strategic Plan (in a Nutshell)!
Let's Grow This Movement Together!
We want our members, partners, and community to understand where we're headed, how we're getting there and why your voice matters along the way. That's why we created an infographic that helps make our 2026–2030 Strategic Plan come to life. It introduces our food-sector coalitions, outlines our Shared Framework, and offers a glimpse into how we're working together to create lasting change in our local food system.
We want to hear from you!
This plan is a big shift, and we want to make room for questions, conversations, fresh ideas, and opportunities to work together. Whether you have questions about our coalition structure, organizing approach, Shared Framework, opportunities for collaboration, or ways to get involved, we'd love to connect. Reach out to our Coalition Director at leslie@milwaukeefoodcouncil.org.
We're always happy to share more, explore strategic partnerships, exchange ideas, and find new ways to grow together in community.
This food movement belongs to all of us. Let's build it together!
