We work in service to a more equitable food system
FWG is committed to uncovering and disrupting the tenets of white supremacy that underpin our food system. We recognize the multiple, intersectional barriers that prevent Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC) farmers, food vendors, and food system leaders from achieving their full potential, and we strive to recognize, address, and work to eliminate these barriers whenever possible. We recognize that hunger and health disparities often fall along racial lines. We work to elevate the voices of marginalized communities through thoughtful, informed engagement and encourage our clients to consider the time, resources, and reflection that true inclusion and restorative justice demands. FWG is committed to continued learning and self-evaluation on racism in the food system and the nuanced impacts of systemic racism on food justice.
