Food Well Alliance is a collaborative network of local leaders working together to build equitable and thriving community gardens, urban farms, and orchards across metro Atlanta. Our mission is to provide resources and support to local growers to connect and build healthier communities.
Grow With Us!
Together, we can realize our vision of an Atlanta that is locally grown and community connected. That includes you! Volunteer, donate or join us in this week’s featured action step:
Across metro Atlanta, many families and growers are facing uncertainty around food and resources. Food banks, pantries, and other community partners are heroically responding to the immediate crisis – and we're working alongside them to ensure sustainable food access for the long term. Moments like these remind us why strong, local food systems matter.
This GAgives on Giving Tuesday, your support helps strengthen that local foundation. Together, we can help communities grow more of their own food, provide growing spaces with the resources they need, and expand access to local food. We hope you’ll join us in reaching our goal of $55,000 on Tuesday, December 2. Thanks to a matching gift by the Food Well Board, every dollar you contribute will be DOUBLED – up to $25,000.
Early giving starts now! In honor of our 10th anniversary, please consider giving a monthly donation. When you give monthly, you’re not just donating, you’re helping sustain over 300 farms, community gardens, and orchards throughout the seasons. Plus with our board match, a gift of just $10 a month adds up to $240 in one year!
Now Accepting Applications for the Next Local Food System Plan!
In partnership with the Atlanta Regional Commission (ARC), Food Well Alliance works with city governments and residents to develop inclusive and equitable Local Food System Plans. The 2025 application cycle is now open through November 14 for cities in Clayton, Cobb, DeKalb, Fulton, and Gwinnett counties. This year we’re offering our largest implementation support package ever! In addition to the $75k grant, Food well is now offering $25k in in-kind support through our Resource Center programs.
