About Us
Ithaca’s Food Web conveys local news about local food to residents of Ithaca, NY, Tompkins County, and the greater online community.

Alison’s Pledge
Ithaca’s Food Web values and abides by journalism ethics, such as:
*gathering information for the benefit of readers
*telling readers the complete story, as best as we can learn it
*correcting errors explicitly as soon as we become aware of them
*avoiding favoritism for particular sources and subjects based on friendships
*always disclosing public relations work, paid or unpaid
As a hyper-local online niche publication, Ithaca’s Food Web is breaking new ground. Like traditional news publications, this website will accept paid advertising in the future. Because the geographic focus of this publication is so narrow, we recognize that our news sources may also become sponsors, or vice versa. We pledge to always notify readers when a sponsor becomes a source, or vice versa.
You – Ithaca’s Food Web readers – are smart, critical thinkers. We're eager to hear your feedback, ideas, and concerns.
