Our Mission:
Empowering changemakers to build a sustainable, equitable food system



Our Vision

We envision a future where food is a catalyst for healthy communities and environments, and is equally accessible to all.

We Believe....

Our associates are a force for positive change

In championing and empowering diverse-owned food businesses

Food production should contribute to the regeneration of the earth and communities

Income should not determine the quality of your food

Hunger anywhere is unacceptable– food is a right for everyone

That food waste is a solvable issue and should be eliminated
