Food as Medicine Global will sunset as a 501(c)(3) nonprofit effective June 20, 2024. Given the recent emergence of numerous food-as-medicine initiatives, they believe now is the appropriate time to conclude their work as an organization. Members and conference registrants will continue to have access to our Online Community Site through May 31, 2025, to stay connected and view the conference recordings.
You are encouraged to be involved with the dedicated groups in the Resource Directory (the same link as below), which includes organizations and community initiatives working towards positive food system solutions.

Vision – A collaborative global community of farmers, health care providers, healers, hospitals, clinics, educators, schools, academic centers, students, cooks and consumers united in a vision for a healthy world.
Mission – To facilitate educational conversations and collaborative engagement for unifying agriculture and medicine to promote health and healing for all. Food as Medicine Global (FAMG) is about community. We facilitate conversations leading to increased collaborations and individual actions to promote health and healing for all. We host events for continued cooperative engagement, brainstorming, and learning from each other to advance the Food as Medicine movement.
Why? Many of our current world challenges have a common root: the way food is grown and consumed. Farming practices impact the health of people, animals, and the environment. Healthier soil leads to healthier food, healthier people, a healthier ecosystem, and healthier climate. There is already a great deal of work happening globally in these areas; however, much of it is in isolation. Our intent is to gather information, build bridges, advance conversations, strengthen engagement, highlight success stories, and amplify efforts to energize a global movement.
