In a year of change, challenge, and hope, we are more committed than ever to showcasing the vibrant community of small, independent makers persevering to bring truly good food to every corner of the country. For a decade, we have gathered 250 of the top tasters together each year to taste the 2,000 entries and determine the tasty, authentic and responsible winners. While a large gathering no longer fits the times, we are working to adapt the Blind Tasting into a safe and socially distanced format.

Re-envisioning what things could look like is a theme this year. Firmly rooted in hope and change, the Good Food Foundation is offering a free entry in the Awards to all BIPOC owned companies whose sourcing practices align with the Good Food standards. As the first step in a multi-year plan guided by a new Equity Task Force, we look forward to being part of a shift towards a more equitable food system. Learn more about our commitment to building more equitable food systems here.

Stay in the loop on all the change in the Good Food Awards bi-monthly (sign up at bottom of page), or email connect@goodfoodfdn.org.

For a long time, certifications for responsible practices and awards for superior taste have remained distinct – one honors social and environmental responsibility, while the other celebrates craftsmanship and flavor. The Good Food Awards recognizes that truly good food – the kind that brings people together and builds strong, healthy communities – contains all of these ingredients.
