We work with new and existing food businesses across the Northeast. We support folks who are dedicated to a more diverse, environmentally and financially sustainable, and resilient food system.

Perennial Beverage Makers
Often ignored in food system advocacy, we’re centering wine, cider, and mead makers. These are products in which every decision is often made by the person who grew the fruit.

Farmers
It all starts on the farm. Farmers are the lifeblood of the food system. They also have unique needs and resources.

Restaurants
Bars and restaurants are the crux of communities; especially of marginalized communities like immigrant and queer communities.

Retailers
Food and beverage retail is the connection between growers and consumers. They are special places that can be opportunities for storytelling and consumer engagement.

Manufacturers
Whether you’re selling a few loaves of bread out of your home kitchen or have major production facilities, manufacturers are a major part of the food system by stocking retailers shelves and preserving agricultural products.

Importers & Distributors
Importers and distributors are the unsung heroes of the food system. They take on the logistical challenges of moving, often perishable, products across the region and get food from the rural places where its produced to the population centers.
We bring our experience as cooks, servers, and food business owners to our collaboration with the food community.
