2026 NH Food System Statewide Gathering
April 10, 2026
Owl’s Nest, Thornton, NH


The NH Food Alliance hosts the NH Food System Statewide Gathering each year to bring together individuals, businesses, and organizations from across sectors who are dedicated to growing an improved local food system that works for all in the Granite State.

Farmers, fishermen, business owners, and food system professionals from across New Hampshire and New England will be gathering to dive deeply into breakout sessions, networking activities, and more to drive change across New Hampshire’s food system. 

The theme of this year’s gathering is strategic momentum. Participants will learn about work happening across our network in support of the New Hampshire Food and Agriculture Strategic Plan, and how to get involved. Come to hear about how our network is addressing recommendations, from new workgroups to student projects, get engaged in collaborative opportunities to address the most pressing issues outlined in the Strategic Plan, and build skills so we can do more together. Be there to get to know our food system community and build connections!
