Equity and Collective Power.

Healthy food is a human right that unleashes human potential. Systemic racism and corporate consolidation limit equitable access to farmland, fishing, and food. Sharing power and honoring all voices through collective decision-making leads to community-centered solutions.

Networking Differently.

To create systemic change, we need to expand and diversify participation in food systems organizing. Convening and engaging diverse stakeholders across Maine’s entire food system, we leverage the power of networks to act collectively toward a shared vision.

Systems Thinking.

Maine’s food system is vast, complex, and interconnected. Trusting relationships, synergy, and transparency within the system supports the parts for a stronger whole.
