Fellows get to work in the CLBL farm house.
Chosen through an open application process, the ROC Fellows are a diverse group of CA food system leaders working together to develop strategies to create a sustainable food system for CA by 2030. Each class of ROC fellows is  selected to reflect a level of diversity and experience representative of the current CA food system. The fellows are chosen based on a wide variety of considerations including: their role in food system, leadership experience, project/business experience, connections to extended CA networks, and diversity of age, race, and geographic location to reflect the state’s overall diversity.
