Food Justice is Racial Justice

 ​The DGM is committed to healthy food access for all, economic opportunity for small businesses and community engagement. We stand against racism, and support the peaceful protesting of our community. As a steward for food justice we work hard to provide a safe and inclusive space with the understanding that this is not and has not been the same for people of color. We will continue to improve in these matters and work alongside those dismantling the systems in place that make this a reality.
