The Iowa Food System Coalition (IFSC) was formed to chart a course toward a thriving, sustainable, and equitable food system in Iowa. The Coalition continues to grow, building upon the group of more than 40 farm and food system partners representing farmers, nonprofit organizations, government, universities, Extension, public health, food banks and pantries, and public schools who helped develop the plan.

The Coalition launched Setting the Table for All Iowans in 2024–a document to help guide our work over the next decade. Our aim is to increase local food production and consumption, enhance economic opportunity in Iowa, and improve the health and resiliency of our communities.
