Reconciling food production and the protection of ecosystems is a major contemporary environmental concern. Sustainable regional food policies can support the development and maintenance of local food production by integrating value chains with a variety of environmental, climate and resources management issues. This chapter examines how food policies and associated actions through the València Living Lab have sought to strengthen rural-urban connections in relation to ecosystem services (ESS). The main body of evidence in this chapter comes from València, Spain. The shift of València in public policies toward sustainable and local food systems has become an important narrative in rural-urban relations and ESS enhancement. Regionally, València needs to manage food system dynamics of diversification and future climate risks as part of a resilient system that ensures environmental protection, local food provision and strengthened rural-urban relations.
