We are the Interfaith Sustainable Food Collaborative
We strive to facilitate a shift to a more sustainable food system, working from the perspective of religious values. Our mission is to reconnect religious people to a sustainable food system through their faith community and to expand the base of the sustainable agricultural movement to improve public policy.
What’s New at Interfaith Food
Filling the Gap between Faith Communities and Emergency Response Organizations in Disasters
We are currently conducting a survey of faith organizations in 9 Bay Area counties to learn more about their current capacity and future interest in providing food access to their communities during disasters.
From the survey results, we will compile a list of at least 100 faith organizations with the capacity to provide food access to their communities during disasters. This list will be provided to county Offices of Emergency Management and COADs/ VOADs for use during disaster response efforts.
Please let your friends in the faith community know about the survey! For more information, please visit our resources page.
We’re hiring! See our job opportunities here.

Interfaith Food has compiled a number of resources to help congregations, faith leaders, and individuals create a more sustainable food future. Ideas for choosing a food system project, mini-grants to advance these programs, and other forms of support are available from our list of resources.
Advocacy
We are committed to advancing a sustainable food system by advancing public policy through advocacy. Look for timely opportunities to influence public decision making on our current advocacy page, and see our history of prior advocacy work.
