Day two took us out of the conference room and into the garden. 🌻🥕

On Saturday, October 17, the CNEHJ event carpooled to the Edible Schoolyard Community Farm in Stockton, CA, and it was the perfect way to close out our conference weekend.

The garden was alive with a community event that brought together families, neighbors, and local firefighters. There was so much happening: free vegetables to take home, raffles with prizes from local vendors, pumpkin painting, face painting, and even a beekeeping demonstration. 🎃🐝🎨

What stood out most was being outside, in nature, together. Seeing kids and families getting their hands dirty and learning where food comes from was a powerful reminder of why this work matters. Sustainable food systems start with community, and learning to grow your own food is one of the most empowering ways to take part in your own health and well-being. 🌱

More events are coming, so stay tuned and keep an eye on our page for what’s next!

This past weekend, October 16-17, we gathered at Stanislaus State’s Stockton Campus for the Food Systems, Community Health, and Well-Being Conference. These highlights from day one of the event brought together health professionals around agriculture and environmental health.

A heartfelt thank you to every speaker who generously shared their expertise, and to every attendee who showed up with curiosity, passion, and purpose. It was truly special to meet all of you and to be in a room full of people who care deeply about the same things: healthy communities, healthy food systems, and a healthier environment for all.

Friday night’s dinner was a highlight too. Sharing a meal gave us the chance to bond, swap stories, and build connections that will carry this work forward. 🍽️✨

Thank you for being part of this. We’re so grateful! 🙏

This is just the beginning. More events are coming, so keep an eye on our page for future announcements!

Join us on Oct 28th!

This one-hour webinar, the second in a three-part series, will help nurses and health care professionals understand common drinking water contaminants in the San Joaquin Valley, how community members may be exposed, and potential short- and long-term health effects.

Participants will learn how water quality concerns can affect patients and communities, recognize relevant risk factors, and apply practical strategies for patient assessment and education.

Will we see you there?

“ I recently went to the Monterrey Aquarium with my 2- and 4-year-old grandchildren. It is a magical place no matter how old you are. The spectacle that Mother Nature provides is mesmerizing.

In addition to the spectacle, the Aquarium has a serious mission to educate us. For those of us who love seafood, they have created an easy set if guides to help us make consumer choices that will help sustain fish populations.

Their Seafood Guides cover the most popular seafood but also provide information about regional seafood. They even have a Sushi Guide!

Their Super Green List has 10 seafoods you can eat in good conscience, knowing they’re good for you and the planet. These foods are high in omega-3 fatty acids and low in mercury.

As nurses we are always looking for evidence for making our own healthier consumer choices and sharing that information with our patients and communities.
The Aquarium gives us a great set of tools to make that easy.

Oh yeah, and they have mouth-watering recipes!! Enjoy and feel good about your choices.” ~ Barbara Sattler, RN, DrPH, FAAN

Prop 45 was introduced by the California Chamber of Commerce, which represents oil companies, developers, investor‑owned utilities, and other major industrial interests.

It will directly weaken protections for clean air, clean water, public health, and wildlife.

“California moves to outlaw disposable vapes, a toxic trash plague from beaches to battery fires”

@cagovernor should sign #AB762 to rid this wasteful, toxic product from our communities.

Each day, Americans throw away almost 500,000 disposable vapes — 5.7 every second. They often end up in the trash or on the ground, littering streets and beaches and leaching toxic chemicals into waterways. If they reach waste facilities, they also pose a fire hazard.

Vape manufacturing uses extremely valuable materials such as copper wire and lithium that not only require environmentally destructive mining operations to extract, but could instead be used for longer lasting and more socially beneficial devices, such as electric car batteries.

AB 762 passed the legislature and is awaiting signature of the Governor.

IMPORTANT TIMING
Last day for governor to sign bills - Sep. 30
