About FEEST
FEEST is building a youth-led movement for healthy schools. Focusing on the need for healthier, more culturally relevant food in school, we support the leadership of youth in South Seattle and South King County to transform the culture and policies that directly impact their lives. Our work challenges the root causes of food injustice by placing those most impacted at the forefront of change.
Our Mission
FEEST sets the table for young people to transform the health and equity of their community by gathering around food & working towards systems change.
