Food Solutions Summit: Stories from the Frontlines of Climate and Farming

Please join us for a Climate Week NYC 2026 funder and field convening on food and agriculture as one of the most underleveraged pathways for climate, health, biodiversity, and community resilience.

Too often, food and agriculture are treated as niche issues — separate from climate, public health, biodiversity, economic transition, rural resilience and democracy. But the food system sits at the center of all of them.

This half-day convening will bring together farmers, fishers, frontline organizers, scientists, policymakers, journalists, funders and investors, and other leaders to explore what becomes possible when food systems are designed to regenerate rather than extract — rebuilding soil, advancing climate resilience and adaptation, protecting health, strengthening rural communities, restoring biodiversity, and renewing public trust.

The event is receiving media sponsorship by Civil Eats and Consumer Reports, and is hosted collectively by Earthshare, Funders for Regenerative Agriculture, Global Alliance for the Future of Food, GRACE Communications Foundation, Ibirapitanga, Macdoch Foundation, and McKnight Foundation.

A locally-sourced light breakfast will be served.
