Good Food Mercantiles

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.

The Good Food Guild is the only national trade association uniting food and drink crafters committed to environmentally sustainable and socially just production practices. With nearly 500 business members in over 45 states and Washington, D.C., the Guild is an economic force transforming the American food system.

The Good Food Merchants Alliance is a growing, national coalition of retailers who work in tandem to raise awareness of the role independent grocers play in maintaining a good food system and support the food crafters that make the shelves of exceptional grocers unique.

The "Un-Trade Show" for tasty, authentic, responsible food, the Good Food Mercantile is a one-day, intimate gathering of like-minded food crafters and merchants. Held three times a year, the Mercantile is the Good Food Movement’s answer to building commerce and community.

Continuing its momentum towards a diverse, truly “good” food economy, Good Food Works includes our equity work and other projects that humanize the food system.
