Sponsored by the Rural Advancement Foundation International-USA and the Come to the Table program. RAFI-USA envisions a future in which people work in partnership to build strong, self-reliant communities where everyone can eat healthy, just and sustainable food. RAFI-USA brings this vision to life through Come to the Table. Come to the Table’s objective is to relieve hunger and strengthen just, sustainable agriculture in rural North Carolina. They engage and mobilize people of faith, farmers, and communities to increase food security, address poverty and strengthen justice in our food system.
