our impact
Our tagline "Defend. Advocate. Protect." is a reflection of our unwavering commitment to an independent farm to consumer food ecosystem.
What we do
Food Freedom Foundation works tirelessly to defend the rights of sustainable family farms and artisan food producers from government harassment and overreach. We contribute to the success of like-minded organizations, while also providing advocacy, education, and support for both farmers and consumers.
Our goal is to promote a fair and independent farm to consumer ecosystem that preserves and enhances the environment and its natural resources.
Who we serve
Family farms, artisan food producers, cottage food makers. Our efforts advocate for and defend the rights of small farming operations to offer meat, poultry, eggs, dairy products, produce and prepared food directly to consumers without a license.
why it matters
Imagine a world where what you eat is decided by a government bureaucrat hundreds of miles away from your home and community. Imagine someone telling you what you can and cannot feed your family and who you can and cannot get that food from.
That day is today. That agency is the FDA.
Food Freedom Foundation is committed to one goal: the right to choose what food you eat and where you buy it from.

"It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena... who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly..."
