The way we produce food in the United States harms humans, fellow animals, and the life-support systems of our planet
Flourish Coalition emerged in response to the pervasive patterns of harm in the U.S. food system that deprive our communities and exploit and commodify the labor of workers, the bodies of fellow animals, and the life support systems of our planet.

Food security
Environmental justice & protections

Programs
Flourish Coalition provides opportunities for collaborative learning and multiracial community and cultural organizing through grassroots action.
Collaborative Learning
We offer collaborative learning opportunities through educational resources and community-based offerings in the form of presentations, workshops, and immersive learning programs. The focus is on reconnecting people to our foodways, raising awareness of the realities of our food system, and developing a shared language that supports collaboration and helps to inform more just possibilities. The goal is for participants to feel equipped and inspired to engage in grassroots action.
Grassroots Action
Our grassroots action programming entails community and cultural organizing to build people power in support of coalition partners and community initiatives aligned with the promotion of a just, community-led, and climate resilient food system. We work to divest ourselves and our communities of the mechanisms that perpetuate food system injustice and to articulate, practice, and promote alternatives that foster the collective thriving of humans, fellow animals, and the planet.
