Who are we?

Our Mission

Sustainable Table is a not-for-profit organisation regenerating food and farming in Australia from the ground up.

The majority of the food we eat is grown and produced in ways that are harmful to people and the planet. Agriculture is a leading contributor to the climate crisis and wreaks havoc on ecosystems and communities across the world.

Together, we can take action to enable resilient agricultural ecosystems, create thriving communities and reimagine economies.

Our Principles

8 principles underpin our work regenerating Australian food and farming.

01

Regenerative

We put life at the centre of every action and decision.

02

Transformative

We connect catalytic capital with courageous change makers to transform the story behind the food we grow and eat.

03

Place-based

Our work is grounded in the nuances and wisdom of place. We listen carefully to the people on the ground and follow the lead of natural ecosystems.

04

Holistic

Our planet is a living and interconnected system made up of complex relationships. We always account for the whole picture.

05

First Nations First

We prioritise First Nations equity, leadership and sovereignty and place First Nations-led solutions front and centre.

06

Relational

Strong and meaningful relationships are at the heart of what we do. We move at the speed of trust.

07

Transparent Collaboration

Collaboration is our superpower and we do this work out in the open so that others may learn from our missteps and our progress.

08

Humility

Working with nature is inherently humbling. We listen, we learn and we adapt with grace.

Our Impact Areas

We are committeed to cultivating a regenerative future where people, the land, and ecosystems flourish together.

We are healing and regenerating the land for a resilient future.

At Sustainable Table we recognise that how we grow our food matters. Over the last 100 years, industrial farming has caused immeasurable damage and significantly contributed to the climate crisis. We support those farmers who are revitalising the ecosystems they are a part of and adapting for climate resilience.
