"I'm cultivating change by creating a safe space in every room." 🌱

Change often begins with something simple but powerful: helping people feel welcome, valued, and able to show up as their authentic selves. Creating spaces where everyone belongs strengthens our workplaces, communities, and the future of food and agriculture.

At the Cultivating Change Foundation, we're committed to fostering those spaces through leadership development, scholarships, student programs, community events, and the annual Summit.

As we celebrate Pride Month, consider supporting this work and helping us continue building a more inclusive industry for all.

Community isn't one-size-fits-all 🌱

As part of the Cultivating Change Foundation's Pride Month programming, join us on June 24 for a conversation about what it really means to find, build, and participate in community across food and agriculture.

For many LGBTQ+ professionals, community isn't always readily available. It can look different depending on where you live, where you work, and the support systems around you. Together, we'll explore how to identify your own needs, take action, and find meaningful connection—whether that means joining existing spaces or helping create something new.
