ABOUT

nourimap is a community-powered platform that connects people through their relationships with food and place. By mapping where our meals, memories, and movements intersect — from local restaurants to food pantries and community farms — nourimap transforms food experiences into shared knowledge.

Our goal is to make the invisible visible: to show how food connects us, informs our choices, and shapes our communities. Each pin adds value — a story, a recommendation, a resource — that others can return to, learn from, and build upon. Welcome to our living ecosystem of food insight.

Add a pin. Then look back to move forward.

moderation

Posts to Nourimap are moderated by a small group of volunteers before they appear publicly. This is to ensure the following are not added to the platform:

1. Harmful or Exclusionary Content

We do not approve posts that degrade, threaten, or exclude people based on race, ethnicity, citizenship, ability, sexuality, sex, gender, religion, or class. Food is a shared human experience, and nourimap exists to amplify voices across difference — not to silence or harm them.

2. Spam / Advertising

We do not approve spam posts or advertisements of any kind. Nourimap is a community archive, not a marketplace.

The moderation process is in place to ensure the safety and accessibility of nourimap. It is not about policing food traditions, struggles, or identities — all authentic contributions are welcome.
