Our Programs 
FS6 Business Accelerator

The FS6 Accelerator is a cohort-style business and leadership development program designed to bring frontline innovators together with the resources, networks, and capital that they need to democratize wealth and restore health, ecology, and justice back into our food system.

Each program is designed to meet the unique needs of the cohort and the moment. Food System 6 has a diverse roster of mentors, coaches, and peer-leaders that we hand-pick for their perspective and capacity to support each incoming group of innovators. FS6 designs unique and versatile programming that can be focused on accelerating innovation nationally, locally, or across food system themes.

Funder Engagement


Building a more just and regenerative food system will take significant effort on the part of all involved. From the innovators, producers, consumers, to funders, we all have a part to play in this transformation.

Food System 6 is building a network of visionary funders, investors, philanthropists, and financial institutions. We share our data and learnings about the unique capital needs of sixth food system innovators and partner with our funder community to invest in business models that allow communities to retain the returns generated from these investments.

Community Integration


Too often, the people innovating in frontline communities lack the trusted network needed to pursue entrepreneurial opportunities and to support them in scaling their alternative business solutions.

That is why Food System 6 is focused on facilitating open and honest dialogues across the food and agriculture industry, to position innovators as experts, and to build trusted communities of support for marginalized change makers.
