Big news! CUESA is now Foodwise. We have a new name, new look, and renewed commitment to you. For nearly three decades, CUESA (the Center for Urban Education about Sustainable Agriculture) has operated world-class farmers markets and education programs to connect the Bay Area community with fresh, local food and sustainable family farms. Now as Foodwise, we are building on those strengths and deepening our commitment to equity through expanded food access and education programs. Inspired by our Foodwise Kids and Foodwise Teens programs, the name Foodwise honors the food wisdom in all of us. It celebrates the power of community to create a fair, regenerative, and delicious food future for all. Wherever you are on your food journey, you belong here.
