Green Action

SDUSC was created to address systemic inequity after it became increasingly clear that Southeast San Diego lacked representation in important discussions of sustainability as well as opportunities to enter the green job economy.

Today, we exist to bring together communities of concern, stakeholders and like-minded organizations through grassroots organizing to inform processes & policy, to improve the quality of life and to increase opportunities for residents of Southeast San Diego and other resilient communities.

The Gleaning Network of Texas is a nonprofit, grassroots organization that brings together growers, volunteers, and service agencies to help the food insecure with fruits and vegetables left over in Texas fields after harvest.

Yes, many growers and food producers have excess produce in their fields that is either plowed under or turned into compost. This is good, fresh produce that Texans need.

By getting gleaners into fields and orchards, we're able to pick the excess and transport thousands of pounds of produce to food assistance agencies throughout Texas.
