The Real Food Challenge is a national campaign leveraging the purchasing power of colleges and universities to transform the food system. Their primary campaign is to shift $1 billion of existing university food budgets away from industrial farms and junk food and towards local/community-based, fair, ecologically sound and humane food sources—what is called “real food”—by 2020.
The national student-led Real Food Standards Council is undertaking the project of updating the Real Food Criteria—the standards by which ‘real food’ is defined for hundreds of universities.
