We are excited to present our Annual Report 2022 summarising activities and progress in 2022.

Chair welcome

“I write to you to express my gratitude for your many contributions to making 2022 the best year yet for the Cool Farm Alliance. I am energised by the unique diversity of our membership and together, we can ensure that the Cool Farm Alliance remains a driving force towards a regenerative, sustainable food system.”

CEO welcome

“2022 has been a momentous year for the Alliance. We have seen the restructure in our governance model, an introduction of a new business model, with it bringing a new secretariat team and new services to our members.”

Cool Farm at a glance

• The release of CFT 1.0 and associated communications preparing users, coordinating member testing, responding to feedback, and describing key differences. This process, now tried and true, clears the path for future scientific and methodological enhancements with greater ease.
• We initiated critical working groups tackling issues such as regenerative agriculture and biodiversity and bring about a much-needed update to the Cool Farm Alliance business model.
• A refreshed governance structure to enable faster decision making and establish more ways for members to contribute.
• We have built a secretariat that is resourced to support this new and existing phase of the Cool Farm Alliance.
