Ten organizations from Maine were chosen for the first annual “Good Food Org Guide.” The James Beard Foundation  and Food Tank along with a prestigious advisory group of food system experts, developed the guide. What Maine groups made the list?

Ten organizations from Maine were chosen including: Cultivating Community, Focus on Agriculture in Rural Maine Schools, Food and Medicine, Food for Maine’s Future, Good Shepherd Food Bank, The Gulf of Maine Research Institute’s Sustainable Seafood Initiative, The Maine Aquaculture Innovation Center, The Maine Grain Alliance, The Maine Lobstermen’s Association, and Washington County Food and Fuel Alliance.
