Mission

CUESA (Center for Urban Education about Sustainable Agriculture) is a tax-exempt 501(c)3 nonprofit organization dedicated to cultivating a sustainable food system through the operation of farmers markets and educational programs. CUESA was founded in 1994 to educate urban consumers about sustainable agriculture and to create links between urban dwellers and local farmers.

CUESA’s educational initiatives inspire eaters of all ages to participate in cultivating a healthy food system.

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.
