I'm not sure why I am just discovering this resource now: live streams and then archived interviews and panels on food system issues from the Haas School of Business at UC Berkeley in cooperation with The Edible Schoolyard. https://edibleschoolyard.org/ee101
I must say that I find a little Alice Waters goes a long way, but the speakers are top notch and the topics timely. I'm going to watch a few of these - perhaps even some in real time this evening, or a week from tonight when they tackle regenerative agriculture - and then offer a few substantive reviews. Stay tuned.

Food system literacy resources
I've been poking around on line as I develop some supporting resources to take to the General Convention. The Association of Episcopal Deacons (AED) is advocating for the passage of resolution A091.
One thing I learned at our spring deanery meeting (Episcopal congregations in Sonoma and Mendocino counties) is that some folks involved in food ministries have good and generous impulses but lack an up-to-date food system vocabulary and knowledge base.
Here's a fun food system literacy quiz I found on the Food Day (US version) page:
http://www.foodday.org/food_literacy_quiz
(I got all fifteen questions correct, but it wasn't easy.)
And here's a pretty good Local and Regional Food System glossary from Cornell:
