The Good Food Awards or GFAs is an annual award ceremony and reception that takes place at the Palace of Fine Arts in San Francisco, California. It was created by the Seedling Projects group. The awards were designed as a way to recognize food businesses for their environmental and social responsibility in addition to taste criteria.[1][2] The Good Food Awards have been particularly notable in the coffee industry.[3] As of 2015, Olympia Provisions has won six awards, more than any other entrant.
