Our Origin Story

Formerly known as the Food Learning Locator, the Nutrition Navigator is an interactive online mapping tool designed to help communities uncover new layers of programs and resources within their local food system.

This tool, created by the Bainum Family Foundation and now facilitated by The Food Trust, highlights points of expanded access and affordability for healthy food, nutrition education opportunities, and job training programs in the agricultural and culinary fields. Powered by organizational partners throughout the Philadelphia and Washington, D.C. regions, the Nutrition Navigator allows local nonprofits, public agencies and other services providers to input and update their own programs as a way to promote the important work they are doing, as well as join a community of practice of organizations working toward similar goals.
