#115: European Parliament member Sarah Weiner, who sits on the Committee on Agriculture and Rural Development, compares organic policies and markets in Europe with those in the US. The drive to reduce pesticide usage and increase organic acreage in the EU faces an easier path forward without an obstinate Secretary of Agriculture like Tom Vilsack to contend with. Sarah Weiner is a German-Austrian celebrity television chef and member of the European Parliament. A member of the Green Party, she has held a seat on the Committee on Agriculture and Rural Development since her election and is the parliament's rapporteur on regulation of pesticides in the European Union.To watch a video version of this podcast with access to the full transcript and links relevant to our conversation, please visit:https://www.realorganicproject.org/sarah-weiner-eus-farm-to-fork-increases-organic-acreage-episode-one-hundred-fifteenThe Real Organic Podcast is hosted by Dave Chapman and Linley Dixon, engineered by Brandon StCyr, and edited and produced by Jenny Prince.The Real Organic Project is a farmer-led movement working towards certifying 1,000 farms across the United States this year. Our add-on food label distinguishes soil-grown fruits and vegetables from hydroponically-raised produce, and pasture-raised meat, milk, and eggs from products harvested from animals in horrific confinement (CAFOs - confined animal feeding operations).To find a Real Organic farm near you, please visit:https://www.realorganicproject.org/farmsWe believe that the organic standards, with their focus on soil health, biodiversity, and animal welfare were written as they should be, but that the current lack of enforcement of those standards is jeopardizing the ability for small farms who adhere to the law to stay in business. The lack of enforcement is also jeopardizing the overall health of the customers who support the organic movement; customers who are not getting what they pay for at market but still paying a premium price. And the lack of enforcement is jeopardizing the very cycles (water, air, nutrients) that Earth relies upon to provide us all with a place to live, by pushing extractive, chemical agriculture to the forefront.If you like what you hear and are feeling inspired, we would love for you to join our movement by becoming one of our 1,000 Real Friends:https://www.realorganicproject.org/real-organic-friends/To read our weekly newsletter (which might just be the most forwarded newsletter on the internet!) and get firsthand news about what's happening with organic food, farming and policy, please subscribe here:https://www.realorganicproject.org/email/
The Good Food Awards celebrate products that are “tasty, authentic and responsible.” Makers are recognized in eighteen different categories each year based on a blind tasting and the organization's social and environmental responsibility standards. After more than a decade in San Francisco, the awards celebrated their first year in Portland this past weekend. Sarah Weiner, co-founder and executive director of the Good Food Foundation, joins us to talk about the move. We're also joined by award winner Holly Ong, co-founder of Sibeiho, to talk about the impact the awards can have on small producers.
Listen in as Erika talks with Eric and Sarah as they reflect on highlights from their time at Waypoint, the ways God has directed their steps, and their hope for the future as they start out on a new journey.
This week, EURACTIV's agrifood team brings you the latest from the European Parliament's front of the EU's pesticide framework revision. We comment on the leaked draft document put forward by Austrian Green MEP and Parliament's rapporteur on the file, Sarah Weiner and we listen to the take on the ongoing reform of the deputy director of the European Commission's food safety service DG SANTE, Claire Bury.
San Francisco based Good Food Foundation does so, so many things. Support is the one word that comes to mind, but hardly begins to enumerate this multi-faceted organization and the impact they are having on helping America eat better. Their website says it best in their mission, that they exist of help the “passionate and engaged, yet often overlooked” food entrepreneurs who are being authentic and responsible “in order to humanize and reform our American food culture.”. Now that's a big idea, but it takes follow up. The Good Food Foundation supports all those passionate and engaged people with five big, key programs that build incredible awareness for those folks. First is the awards program, a rigorous process by which the winners receive huge awareness and publicity. Second is the nearly 500-member guild, where membership is based on meeting high standards and is an amazing arena in which to talk shop. Fifty percent of American food dollars are spent in the grocery store, and the Merchants Alliance is where those store owners practice putting only the best food on their shelves. The Mercantile program is the grand trade show series, which includes the big NYC show and a Traveling Mercantile. These shows bring 350-800 retailers and media to meet with 200 crafters to show their stuff, each in the same size booth. The Fund program is a work in progress, to intensify innovative programs to unite crafters and merchants to keep good food in front of consumers. Their work has given immeasurable help to growers, ranchers, makers and merchants who buck the big corporate trend. How did this great effort get started? The Executive Director, Sarah Weiner (yes, there are three Sarah's on this episode; try not to get confused) jumped into the fray fresh out of college. As Director of Communications for the Slow Food International Office, Italy, she became a staunch leader for the food movement. Moving then to California, USA, she became Alice Waters' (famous author and national public policy advocate for universal access to healthy, organic foods) “Girl Friday”. Sarah then went on to produce a cavalcade of successful event; Slow Food Nation with 85,000 guests, Organic Food Festival with 20,000 attendees and Sips and Suppers, a fundraiser launched with Alice Waters, Joan Nathan and Jose Andres. These events evolved into bigger visions and missions, including Farm to Desk in Washington, D.C. organizing gardening, classroom and cafeteria programs in public schools where food topics were part of the curriculum. It was the Good Food Awards Project that really blossomed. The first event in San Francisco drew 2,000 entries from all 50 states and from there the team launched project after project, which ultimately became the current five programs of the organization. And the foundation of each of those programs is based on those two important themes: Authentic and responsible. Social media: @goodfoodfdn. Website: goodfoodfdn.org.

It was great catching up with Sarah Weiner, Executive Director of the Good Food Foundation. She is a perfect example of someone that followed their passion for food and seems to have created her dream career sharing sustainable food and promoting artisan producers. "Sarah has worked side by side with the sustainable food movement's founders and visionaries across the globe. As the Director of Communication for the Slow Food International Office in Italy, she was immersed in the roots of the food movement before heading to California to become Alice Waters' “Girl Friday” (in Alice's words) for two years. Next she spearheaded the development of Slow Food Nation as its Content Director, produced the 20,000 person Organic Food Festival in Bristol, England for the Soil Association, developed the Art.Food.Hope fund-raising campaign on the eve of Barack Obama's Presidential Inauguration, and co-founded Seedling Projects.She is the founder of the Good Food Foundation and for over a decade she has grown the Foundation." We talked about some of the ways the Foundation needed to reformulate the judging of the Good Food Awards during the pandemic, what this year's festivities will look like and how quality, small batch food products continue to grow. Since the Good Food Awards began they have had over 6000 entries from across the country. The five key programs under the Good Food Foundation are spreading the word, one producer at a time, all with sustainability, connection, and concentration on reforming the American food culture. https://goodfoodfdn.org/ https://www.instagram.com/goodfoodfdn/

As a child, Sarah Weiner loved food the way other little kids might love music. Her mom would hand her a treat and she'd be an angel all afternoon. Sarah also had a fondness for raising awareness for endangered species and caring for those in need. Years later she would come to realize that her passion for food and making the world a better place could come together to help reshape the nation's food system. Today Sarah serves as Executive Director of the Good Food Foundation. On this episode of Making Ways podcast, she discusses her path from food-loving kid to Economics student at Dartmouth College, and her experiences working with Alice Waters. Sarah has fantastic practical advice on how to learn through osmosis and offers this nugget of wisdom: “If you want to be a change leader, start by being a change helper.” Listen to her story on Making Ways now.
One of our favorite ways to spend a Friday evening is celebrating food activism– so we completely lucked out on January 19th, when HRN had a front row seat at the Good Food Awards. This is the 8th year that the organization has spotlighted the many food producers across the country who are currently excelling at social good and sustainability, while also creating delicious food. 199 winners– from 15 different categories– received medals, and along the way, we also heard inspirational speeches from some of the winners, plus icons Alice Waters, Madhur Jaffrey, and Sarah Weiner, founder of the Good Food Awards, emceed by the one and only Sam Mogannam of Bi-Rite Market. Tune in to hear these speeches and more from the ceremony. Heritage Radio Network On Tour is powered by Simplecast

The panelists are superstars of the good food movement, including Elias Cairo of Olympia Provisions, Danielle Vogel of Glen's Garden Market, Ann Yang of Misfit Juicery, Shanika McCloud of Greenplicity, and Sarah Gordon of Gordy's Pickle Jar.
