The Los Angeles Food Policy Council has a couple of different initiatives. One is their Farm Fresh program.  In collaboration with LAFPC, stores in food deserts and apartheids can source fresh produce so with every CalFresh purchase someone makes, they will receive a free bag of local produce worth $20. CalFresh is California's SNAP program, meaning that low-income families have monthly benefits and funds to buy food. LAFPC adds to CalFresh by directly ensuring that these low-income individuals are also given the healthy produce that they need. Another LAFPC program is their "Healthy Neighborhood Market Network". In this program, they transform corner stores and convenience stores to include nutritious, affordable food in areas that do not have access to grocery stores. They also train the business owners in strategies so that they can ensure that the new healthy food items are sold. You can support LAFPC by donating or joining them at events like their sustainable food in motion event which is going to meet to discuss civic ways to change the supply chain to be more climate-friendly and future-forward. 

Crop Swap L.A. focuses on urban micro-farming and using unused spaces like front lawns to grow crops for communities that face food insecurity. They are able to limit their carbon footprint by growing locally and can create sustainable jobs for many people. Their produce is grown with recycled rainwater that they collect on location. They also use solar power and composting. Their micro-farms' organic crops are harvested, shared, and sent to community fridges and people that live in the neighborhood with the membership. They also accept CalFresh. They have harvested things from bok choi to rosemary to honey crisp apples. They have also brought community gardens to places like schools and churches around Los Angeles. With these gardens, Crop Swap L.A. is able to grow locally, giving the local people the produce that they currently cannot acquire. You can donate and volunteer to help with farming, fruit picking, fundraising, online design, and photography.
