it all started with

a carrot…

We believe local is powerful and that small local act by small local act we can actually make a difference. We also think that while some of this stuff can get pretty heavy (climate change and food security), we should be looking for the fun and moments of joy and curiosity inbetween.

Our vision:
Finding and supporting local goods is simple and easy

Our Mission:
Find ways to increase access and availability of local foods and goods by supporting locals doing good, making good stuff and of course, make it fun along the way

  • how we eat is both a political act and an environmental act

  • you have the power to change big things with small acts

  • where we spend our money is one of the most powerful decisions we make every day

  • more businesses need to generate good for the masses, not just profit for the few

  • equity comes in many forms and should be found in all places - for example businesses and food systems

  • our food system generates so much waste and yet there exists food insecurity, all over the world and right here on Nantucket. Time to agree this is no longer acceptable

A bit more about us and what we do

Since 100 Mile Makers began we have been many things and continue to do many things. We host events, we help small producers make sales, we connect customers to the best of the best local goods. We start our very own style of 100 Mile Makers Market and watch them grow into vehicles for change when it comes to local food availability. We are small and local champions and cheerleaders.

We know so many makers, growers, movers and shakers that are really making things happen in their communities. And simply put - why can it be so hard to support them? We don’t think it has to be.
