Founded in 2015, Berry Good Food is a grassroots nonprofit organization that aims to tackle the barriers—educational, economic, systemic, infrastructural—standing between people in our region and local, sustainably produced food. We educate, connect and support our food community through a variety of programs and events like affordable cooking classes, expert panel discussions, school garden grants, and farm-to-table dinners. We empower our community by building bridges between farmers, chefs, scientists, and citizens to challenge the industrial food system while advocating for access to healthy food for all. We strengthen our local, regenerative, and sustainable food system by partnering with mission-aligned organizations to deepen our regional impact.
