We are a network of business and community leaders who contribute time, expertise and money to create jobs and support positive change through social enterprise.
Food Industry Programs
Rhode Island is a “foodie” state, leading the nation in the ‘farm-to-table’ movement. Despite our large number of farms, premier culinary institution, and organizational momentum behind local food, many Rhode Islanders still suffer when it comes to accessing healthy, nutritious meals. In fact, RI has the highest level of food insecurity in New England and only 1% of diets come from local produce.
Our Impact
With the introduction of our Food Accelerator, we aim to help New England regional food-focused social enterprises address this problem! Thanks to funding from the Henry P. Kendall Foundation, SEG hopes to collaborate with other organizations working in the food space to support ventures that prioritize our local food and economy.
Program Involvement
Food Accelerator
Our goal is to provide much needed business acumen training to do well, do good food businesses. Any type of food related social enterprise is welcome to apply.
Community Table
Our goal is to bring the community together at our monthly, informal discussion about food and food systems. Each month we host an informal, moderated discussion and highlight a local business, organization, or individual that is making an impact in the food community.
