Wild Farm Alliance Food Pyramid
Join
Us In Connecting Food Systems With Ecosystems
WFA's Food Pyramid, a take-off of the USDA Food Pyramid, makes a compelling
case that our food is intimately connected with Nature. And more, that
our food choices can support stewardship farming.
Help support a sustainable food supply. WFA's Food Pyramid is starting
to be used on dining tables for all sorts of events and venues where food
is served.
Download to use on your kitchen table or next event. Contact
us if you need multiple pyramids for a large gathering or conference.
For an interesting read on the food pyramid, see Dana Jackson's "A
food monolith gets a face-lift,"
