MISSIONTo cultivate community-wide collaboration that nurtures equity, health, and regeneration in our Western Foothills food system. |
VISIONOur vision is guided by our Western Foothills Community Food Charter, a collaborative document crafted with community input that outlines the social, economic, environmental, and physical well being components of an equitable, healthy, and resilient food system.

- Community input and engagement to guide work and direction of council
- Health of people, planet, and the socio-ecological fabric of our community - Equity and justice informed governance, programming, and advocacy - Service to our community members and partners most in need - Transparency and accountability to members and broader community |

Community Food Matters proudly serves the towns in the Oxford Hills and broader Western Maine Foothills region. This includes working with neighboring food councils, including Local Food Connection in Bethel, and Good Food Council of Lewiston Auburn, to support food systems work in as many communities in our region as possible. |
