Letter from the author.
Systemic change requires a system ready to change.
For the last three years, through conversations with thousands of participants in our food system, we have heard a universal aspiration to support farmers, take care of our planet, and fight hunger. Those conversations have written this Pledge.
The Shared Plate Pledge is a commitment to principles of innovation, partnership, and measuring our success as one. We recognize the diverse and vital roles that various entities play in our food system, and believe that we are stronger together than the sum of our parts.
This Pledge seeks not to hold others accountable, but to give each participant a framework and community through which we can pursue progress together. Thank you for considering this partnership. Together, we can make a significant difference.
Warmly,
Ben Collier,
CEO of Farmlink Project
