Victual Stewards

Victual (pronounced "vittle" /vɪt.əl/) refers to a food or provision for human consumption.  Coming from the the Latin word victus, which means "nourishment" or "eating to live,"  historically the word victual was used to describe ESSENTIAL FOOD. 
We at Victual Stewards are chefs and farmers and gardeners and food purveyors and restaurateurs and home cooks and others concerned with victuals.  We prioritize environmental sustainability, animal welfare, and supporting ethical, biologically diverse farming practices over industrial agriculture models.  We believe in the conservation of natural resources, and ensuring fair economic and social conditions for all people in the production, distribution, and consumption of food.   We believe in preventing food loss, thereby saving valuable resources like land, water, and energy that went into producing it.  We believe everyone deserves healthy food to live their best life, and together we work toward a future where every person has
the food they need to survive and thrive.
