FoodCorps is a national nonprofit advancing child well-being through food in school. We partner with students, families, and communities to champion nourishing food at local, state, and national levels. Our teams support schools in providing nutritious meals, locally-informed food education, and welcoming school environments that set kids up for positive, vibrant relationships with food. Building on this program, we develop leaders, grow networks, and advocate for policies in service of every kid’s health and well-being. FoodCorps is working toward a future where all 50 million public school students have access to food education and nourishing meals in school. Learn more at www.foodcorps.org.

Since our founding in 1991, The Food Project has grown into a nationally-recognized organization that works at the intersection of youth, food, and community. Each year we hire 120 teens to steward our farms, because we believe that food is a unique vehicle for creating personal and social change. We believe that everyone should have access to fresh, local, healthy, affordable food regardless of age, gender identity, socio-economic background, or the color of your skin. Over the past 25 years, we have grown from a single two-acre farm in Lincoln, Mass., to an organization that now maintains 70 acres of both urban and suburban farms in five towns on the North Shore and in Greater Boston. The Food Project aims to transform our food system into an equitable and inclusive model that is community-controlled and supports food justice for all. Working in partnership, we can realize the vision of a more sustainable and just food system.
