Student Chapter Mission

Our Student Chapters cultivate a community of Plant Futurists — climate leaders and entrepreneurial advocates for a plant-centric food system. Driven by the values of ethical leadership, social enterprise, and systems thinking, Plant Futurists are united by a common vision to transform the food system through the power of plants.

These communities support students in:

  • Discovering, developing, and pursuing a purposeful personal
    and professional path.

  • Creating a positive impact through outreach, events, and community building.

  • Connecting with regional food systems and sustainability professionals to acquire jobs that make a positive difference.
