Honors

Celebrating everyday food heroes every day.

From the K. Dun Gifford "Local Hero” Award, sponsored by Oldways in honor of its founder and bestowed every year since the 2016 inaugural Readable Feast, to the Founders Award, first bestowed in 2021 and honoring a person, book or organization which best represents the spirit of this culinary awards program, we celebrate those who’ve had a positive impact on our food and footways, our communities, our policies, our writers, our publishers, our editors, our readers, our chefs… and you, the audience and recipient of all this bounty.
