Mission Statement

"Food, What?!" is a youth empowerment and food justice organization in Santa Cruz County.

About This Cause

FoodWhat?! is a youth empowerment and food justice organization using food, through sustainable agriculture and health, as the vehicle for growing strong, healthy, and resilient teens. We partner with low-income and struggling youth to grow, cook, eat, and distribute healthy, sustainably raised food and address food justice issues in our community. Founded in 2007, FoodWhat runs dynamic, impactful programming that serves 1,000 teenagers and community members annually. Youth from Watsonville to Santa Cruz join the FoodWhat Crew through Spring Internships, Summer Jobs, Fall Project Management positions, and leading peer-to-peer education in high schools and big community events on the farm. We create a safe space where youth engage in leadership development, personal growth, and job training. At FoodWhat, we inspire personal transformation by supporting teens in finding their voices and developing lasting confidence in themselves.
