The Food Security Roundtable is a network of farmers, community organizers and community members. We are working to strengthen connections between folks living and working in urban and rural areas, and build grassroots relationships throughout the northeast to establish a more stable, democratic, and just food system.

The latest in our Urban/Rural Exchange:

Mothers On the Move

visits Vermont Farmers!

This is a long-awaited trip for the Urban/Rural Exchange – Our first ever trip to get people from the city onto our farms!

On July 9th MOM Youth, Membership, and Staff, and maybe other members of the NYC food justice community, will be jumping on the VROOM bus (Vehicles for Radical Organizing and Other Madness) and going up to VT for a weekend of camping, eating, hanging with farmers and organizers from the Food Security Roundtable. They will be picking boxes of vegetables to bring back home while visiting Roundtablefarmers at Amazing Planet Farm and Justice Center, Afrikan Zion Roots Organic Farm, Circle Mountain Farm, as well as the largest organic farm in New England, Harlowe’s Farm.  We’ll let you know how it goes.
