Food Advocacy: The Ultimate Guide to Getting Involved

My San Francisco Chronicle column on food advocacy includes a severely edited list of organizations working on food issues, particularly school food and the farm bill. I thought the entire list, shown above, might be useful.

Note that information about how to contact government officials appears below.

I consider this list preliminary. Please use the comments to add to it. And pass it along, use, and enjoy!
