FED MEMBERSHIP
We are growing a national network of CBO leaders, farmers, and FED aligned national partners to strengthen peer learning, leadership development, and coordinated advocacy.
The FED Collective is comprised of three inter-connected tiers. The FED Core is the stewardship arm. Through structured cohorts, FED Talks, and shared learning spaces, the Community of Practice & Power supports organizations in deepening community-centered practices and aligning around equity-driven Food as Medicine strategies. This network creates the conditions for collective influence and knowledge sharing across regions. The FED Network is a vehicle for players and allies in Food as Medicine to stay connected, support, and strategically engage with the FED ecosystem.
