Founded in West Oakland, Mandela Partners is a non-profit organization that co-creates an equitable food system through a community-centered lens for our Oakland and unincorporated Alameda County neighborhoods. We hold various business development and food access programming that hones in on different touch-points of the system. By working in partnership with local residents, family farmers, and small businesses in limited-resourced communities – we hope to empower, develop, and provide the resources and tools needed for them to thrive.
