Seasoned Spoon Vision Statement: Grow an inclusive, regenerative, and just regional food system

Seasoned Spoon Mandate: The Seasoned Spoon Café is committed to the following principles.

1)  Serve ethically sourced, fairly traded, locally or organically grown foods that strives to meet diverse dietary needs and includes accessible food options.

2) Be structured as a cooperative and be accountable to our members.

3) Be a student and community-driven, not for profit, social enterprise.

4) Increase awareness, encourage advocacy and inspire action in our community by centering food in our education and by fostering active debate.

5) Offer learning opportunities through paid and volunteer positions, community based research, and educational programming.

6) Maintain the Café as an equitable, diverse and inclusive food commons at Trent University and encourage the development of other community food spaces.

7) Cultivate relationships and practices of reciprocity with community and campus partners, local farmers, Indigenous groups, and the land, to strengthen the regional food system and promote food justice within our community.
