IRS990ScheduleC/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt0A program of Community Ventures called the Sustainable Economies Law Center organized two legislation-oriented campaigns to promote urban agriculture and local food systems. One campaign, based in California, supported legislation introduced in the State Legislature called the "California Neighborhood Food Act" (AB 2561), which aimed to grant more California residents with the right to grow food in the face of challenges posed by city zoning ordinances, landlord/tenant contracts, and stringent Homeowner Association rules. Campaign activities by our organization included writing letters of support for the legislation, testifying at legislative committee meetings, meetings with legislative offices in Sacramento, and sending out emails to other organizations urging them to write and make calls in support of the legislation.The second campaign, a national campaign, called Save Seed Sharing, launched in response to state agricultural departments shutting down seed lending libraries and threatening to shut them down in several states due to strict interpretation of commercial seed regulations. Our campaign activities included drafting and circulating a petition targeted at agricultural regulators, communicating with lawmakers about the possibility of revising relevant laws, communicating with media outlets about the problem and potential solutions that could include legislation or rule making, advising grassroots organizations on lobbying around this issue, and drafting model legislation that exempts donation, barter, and casual exchanges of seeds from seed regulations designed to regulate the commercial seed industry.
