Strategic Plan

The Foodshed Alliance has grown significantly in recent years, and with that growth came complex questions: How do we ensure our programs align with our mission? Are we doing too much? What are we uniquely positioned to do—and do well—for the long haul?

In June 2024, we embarked on a process to create a Strategic Plan to guide us through the next five years. Engaging staff, board members, stakeholders and those in the community we serve, we worked with ChangeMatters, a consulting firm, to guide us through the process. After many  meetings, retreats, brainstorming sessions, and a lot of hard work and discerning decisions, the Board of Trustees approved the plan in April 2025.

Given all that 2025 is throwing at us–federal funding uncertainty, change in leadership–this strategic plan is guiding us forward focused on our mission, values, goals, objectives and priorities. It is exactly for changing times like these that make strategic plans so critical to an organization.
