The Central Okanagan Food System Collaborative brings together organizations to better coordinate, connect, and strengthen food security efforts across the region.
COFSC is a collaborative network of organizations, community partners, and leaders working to improve food security in the Central Okanagan.
Rather than creating new programs, we focus on strengthening what already exists by improving coordination, reducing duplication, and supporting more equitable and dignified access to food.
We support organizations working in food security by:
Strengthening and aligning existing efforts
Improving coordination of food access across the region
Reducing duplication across programs and services
Supporting equity, dignity, and community voice
The Central Okanagan has many strong food security initiatives already in place. When these efforts are better connected, communities benefit from more accessible, coordinated, and effective supports
