FAQs

Each year we invite groups across Europe to organize their own event or register one already planned. Whether it’s a protest, picnic, workshop, film screening, or harvest—online or in person—there are no strict rules, just one cause: #GoodFoodGoodFarming!

If you already have a food or farming activity planned between October 1 and 31, don’t hesitate to register it below to get featured on our Action Map! This year we also offer grants of up to 400 euros to organize your own event. Just sign up in the registration form below with a few lines on exactly why YOUR event should get the grant. We will get in touch if you have been selected!

There are over two million migrant agricultural workers in Europe. They are an essential part of our food system. But this work often leads them into modern slavery: unacceptable working and living conditions, pay without a minimum wage, inadequate access to healthcare and the violation of their basic freedoms and human rights.

Together with Film & Campaign Ltd. we provide free screening licenses to host a public viewing of ‘the Pickers‘, a powerful documentary on migrant workers in Europe’s food system. Sign up below and use the screening to spark discussion on labour justice.

Join the movement for #FoodJustice by signing on or all of our petitions this October! To make it easy for you to join the camapign we have selected two petitions for you to sign, both covering important aspects of what needs to change in our food systems! Read more below.

1.  “Farming That Feeds People, Not Profits”

Most of us picture peaceful green fields and happy cows when we think of farming. But the reality? Small farms are disappearing. Animals are crammed into industrial mega-farms. And the planet is paying the price. 

Every year, billions in EU subsidies—our public money—go to agribusiness giants. While the likes of Bayer-Monsanto rake in profits, we struggle with rising food prices and small farmers don’t earn enough to survive. In just 15 years, Europe lost 5 million farms. Let decision-makers know that we want change by signing the petition for “farming that feeds people, not profits”!

2. “10 demands for a FAIR PICK” 

We shouldn’t have to question whether our food is exploitation free. Existing legal standards and UN guidelines should protect migrant workers in agriculture. However, they are still not universally applied and comprehensively enforced. To make the call for Migrant workers’ rights louder, sign the 10 demands for a FAIR PICK!

Write your demand on a large sign, and post a photo of yourself holding it with the hashtag #FoodJustice and join the EU-wide action. Don’t forget to tag Good Food Good Farming! Some demands you could focus on are:

• Access to healthy food should not be a privilege but a basic right.
• Real market regulation means putting farmers, workers, and communities before agribusiness profit.
• Food justice means: fair pay, dignity, and safe working conditions from field to fork.
  
• We will only have a just future if the next generation of farmers does.
• Food justice starts with thriving rural communities, not global supply chains.
  
• Food justice for one is food justice for none.
