Who We Are
We are a collective of individuals with a distinct passion and determination for a better food economy. Like most, we have experienced the flaws of our current food system; from facing food insecurity, and tackling autoimmune disease, to working on the front line to feed millions during a global pandemic. Our commitment is to creating food resiliency, all while paying it forward.
Together, we are
Feed Forward
