Food Access
Our office works to make healthy food more available and more affordable in Boston.
The Mayor's Office of Food Access wants everyone to have access to nutritious food. That food should be affordable, easy to find, and reflect the many cultures of our City.
Our goal is to create a more food secure community with a vibrant, inclusive food culture. We want to reflect the diversity of the residents of Boston.

Food Access agenda
The Mayor’s Office of Food Access believes that food is a right, not a privilege. Because of this belief, we will take on a bold vision to end food insecurity in Boston by 2030.
