At Border Foods, our core values act as the guiding principles for how we serve our communities and interact with our teams. We’re more than a place to work. We’re a family, and these are the values we live, for the customers we love. #tacobell #borderfoods #borderfoodsfamily #workplaceculture #corevalues #excellence #family #integreity #empowerment #teamwork #accountability

The theme for the 3rd San Diego County Food Vision 2030 Annual Gathering is "Kinship". The intention of the day is described beautifully below ❤️ We hope you will save Thurs 10/19 on your calendars to join the community of incredible folx committed to cultivating justice, fighting climate change, and building resilience through our food system. “We live in an astounding world of relations. We share these ties that bind with our fellow humans—and we share these relations with nonhuman beings as well. From the bacterium swimming in your belly to the trees exhaling the breath you breathe, this community of life is our kin—and, for many cultures around the world, being human is based upon this extended sense of kinship.”* Indigenous communities who have lived alongside and cared for this land since time immemorial—upon which most of us are only recent visitors—have always known that there is only one sustainable way forward: seeing the world around us as a community of life, as kin. Last year, the theme of the Gathering was belonging. This year, we invite attendees to consider this astounding world of relations to which we belong. Every being is interdependent and undeniably connected. What would it look like to center kinship in our systems once more? How can we become better kin? Answering these questions is crucial for cultivating a food system that works for all of us—cultivators, distributors, eaters, and the community of life to which we belong. *This passage on kinship is from storytellers Gavin Van Horn and Robin Wall Kimmerer. https://lnkd.in/gU65jQfE
