he SAFSF Forum is a unique gathering for the full spectrum of funders – including philanthropy, investors and community finance – interested in skill building, networking, and leadership development in food and agriculture. The conference brings together funders, frontline community and movement leaders, and practitioners across the country to come together to advance equity and sustainability in food and agriculture.

The 2025 Forum will focus on advancing solutions through a systems change approach, grounded in our theme of Resilience, Justice, and Democracy. We are looking for ideas for workshops and panels, learning dinners, networking and field based learning that explore strategies for systems change across: culture, policy, markets, tools, and capital.
