Our Purpose

The Food Pavilion is a partnership made possible through the India Basin Waterfront Park Equitable Development Plan (EDP). The landmark plan, a first for San Francisco, provides a blueprint for delivering a park designed by and for the community while improving economic opportunity and environmental health for its residents.

Outlined in the plan are strategies to build and sustain local job creation, with emphasis on the Black community; to support Bayview-Hunters Point commercial corridors beyond the park; and to use the physical spaces and park programming to build community cohesion and social capital.

The India Basin Waterfront Park project is a partnership between the Trust for Public Land, San Francisco Parks Alliance, A. Philip Randolph Institute (APRI), San Francisco Recreation and Park Department, and the Bayview-Hunters Point community. For more information about India Basin Waterfront Park, click here.

The Food Pavilion offers a dynamic space for chefs, food entrepreneurs, and community members to come together and create.
