Food Fairness Illawarra
Addressing food insecurity and food waste in the Illawarra.
Who
We Are
Food Fairness Illawarra (FFI) is a program of Healthy Cities Australia working to improve food security and reduce food waste across the Illawarra. Our goal is simple: a region where good food is accessible to everyone and valuable food is not wasted. Today, FFI focuses on practical initiatives that strengthen our local food system, support food relief organisations, and help redirect surplus food to people who need it most.
What We Do
Find sustainable,
ethical food near you.
Looking for your local farmer’s market, grocer or food relief organisation?
We created a comprehensive directory listing sustainable, ethical food spots across the Illawarra.
From butchers to community gardens to independent grocers, easily find where you can vote with your dollar and purchase or take part in fairer food in your community.
Low Cost &
Free Meals
Are you, or someone you know, in need of food support? These are all the free/low cost meals and grocery services in the Illawarra.
Donating Food
as a Business
Donating your leftover edible food as a business doesn’t have to be difficult. It helps people and the planet, lowers your waste costs, is legally protected and boosts customer engagement and staff morale.
The Illawarra
Regional Food Hub
We are working in collaboration with our food relief and rescue partners towards the Illawarra Food Hub, a physical space to store and redivert surplus food that handles all the logistics for relief providers.
