Director & Team

Dan Kittredge

Dan is director of the Real Food Campaign and past executive director of Remineralize the Earth. Dan grew up on a farm the son of two prominent leaders in the organic farming movement: Julie Rawson and Jack Kittredge. He manages two organic farms currently, and has worked directly with farmers in Central America, Russia and India as well as across the USA researching and developing sustainable agriculture techniques.

Dan is the strategic developer behind the Real Food Campaign. He is passionate about raising the quality of nutrition in our food supply through collaboration with all interested stakeholders, from growers to grocery stores. He is currently teaching biological soil management systems to farmers and gardeners throughout the Northeastern USA and has called for the first National Conference on Nutrient Dense Food.

Dan's vision includes a highly educated public that appreciates the benefits of nutrient dense food and seeks it out, wholesalers and retailers who understand the market potential and sources of supply, a robust distribution system, and a synergistic web of connection between the farming community, labs for soil and tissue testing, and biological farming consultants who help farmers to make it happen. Critical to Dan's vision is the development of rigorous standards certifying food as nutrient dense. email: Dan
