Partnering for Food Justice
At King Arthur Baking Company, we’re working to transform our food systems to be more accessible, regenerative and just. Because we believe that everyone deserves the right to grow, sell, buy, and eat nourishing, culturally relevant food.
Our Food Justice Pillars
Investing, advocating, and partnering to transform our food systems

Connecting kids to nourishing food in school.
Making long-term, systemic changes to end hunger and malnutrition in Vermont.
Working to recover food to reduce waste and provide reliable access to nutritious food for people in need.

We especially love that King Arthur's Bake for Good program encourages students to share a loaf with someone in need, leading to a sense of ownership and community engagement that is so needed right now.
