Welcome to the Pomona Valley
Community Food Archive.
This digital archive, which features cultural knowledge, art, and stories about our relationship with food, is made possible with support from California Humanities, a non-profit partner of the National Endowment for the Humanities. Visit calhum.org. Cal Poly Pomona, a partner institution, also generously contributed to the success of this collaborative project.
