This program is in partnership with Oakland Bloom. Oakland Bloom’s mission is to advance economic equity in the food industry. It aims to support poor and working-class refugee, immigrant, and BIPOC chefs to launch their own food businesses, and to reenvision and reshape what a healthy and just food service industry could look like. It pursues these aims by enabling pathways for individual & collective ownership and neighborhood resilience with working class migrant/BIPOC chefs and communities.

This program is made possible by the Friends of the Oakland Public Library.
