About
The regeneration of Australia’s food and farming systems

Who is Sustainable Table?

At Sustainable Table, we are regenerating Australia’s farming, food and fibre systems from the ground up.

Change makers all over Australia are working on regenerative

regenerative

A regenerative approach is one that enables the regrowth, renewal or restoration of systems and relationships, including those that have been damaged or lost. In the words of Paul Hawken it, “...means putting life at the centre of every action and decision... and it applies equally to families, communities, cities, schools, religions, cultures, commerce and governments.”

solutions to the climate crisis and the social and environmental problems our farming, food and fibre systems face. These solutions are grounded in care for people and planet. Sustainable Table exists to fund these change makers, share their stories and cultivate regeneration.

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.
