Connecting Farmers & Eaters
The path food travels — the food system — includes everything from growing and harvesting to processing, packaging, transporting, selling, eating, and disposing of food. Our mission is to grow that system to be sustainable for both the farmers and eaters in our region. We offer markets and transparent enterprise systems that help New England farmers, fishers, and food producers reach more customers and reduce waste. And we work with the community through outreach, incentives, educational and hunger relief programs to increase the accessibility and affordability of fresh, local foods.

We are saddened to share that funding for @americorps Direct Service programs in Rhode Island has been terminated by the federal administration. This decision puts the vital community work supported by service members across our state at risk.
At Farm Fresh RI, many of our programs simply wouldn’t exist without the support of AmeriCorps. From building food access initiatives to supporting local farmers and educating the next generation, the contributions of AmeriCorps members have been at the heart of our work for many years.
We extend our sincere thanks to all past and present AmeriCorps members who have served with Farm Fresh RI. Your dedication, passion, and tireless work have helped shape a more just and vibrant food system in Rhode Island—and continues to have a lasting impact 💚
