Mission
Dedicated to cultivating a sustainable food system through the operation of the Ferry Plaza Farmers Market and its educational programs, CUESA (Center for Urban Education About Sustainable Agriculture) educates urban consumers about sustainable agriculture and creates links between urban dwellers and local farmers. The organization's initiatives include farm tours, cooking demonstrations, youth programs, market to table events, and other educational activities to inspire healthy eating and thriving communities.[1][2][3][5][6][7][8]
About
Education Programs: CUESAs educational initiatives inspire eaters of all ages to participate in cultivating a healthy food system, including cooking demonstrations, farm tours, youth programs and more. CUESA offers a variety of free cooking demos, educational exhibits, food and farm tours and sustainability talks to connect people and build community around healthy, seasonal food. Our educational exhibits and tastings give curious shoppers the opportunity to deepen their understanding of sustainable food systems by exploring topics such as the drought, biodiversity, food labeling, and more. Through CUESAs programs, participants see, taste, and learn about their food first-hand. CUESA hosts evening lectures and panel discussions inside the Ferry Building on pertinent issues about our food system, such as farming in an age of climate change, food waste, humane animal husbandry, and the rise of urban agriculture.
