Die von Frank Fol – Der Gemüsekoch® - ins Leben gerufene Organisation würdigt und fördert Einzelpersonen, Restaurants und Unternehmen, die Obst und Gemüse in den Mittelpunkt der Ernährung stellen. Der jährlich erscheinende We're Smart® Green Guide präsentiert die besten Gemüserestaurants der Welt in einem Ranglistensystem, das von 1 bis 5 "Radishes“ (Radieschen) reicht. Die jährlichen We're Smart® Awards wiederum zeichnen die besten Gemüserestaurants und Organisationen aus.

Mit alldem will We're Smart® zu einer gesunden, nachhaltigen und ökologischen Welt beitragen. Dies wird auch offiziell anerkannt: We're Smart® wurde von der belgischen Regierung als eine der offiziellen SDG Voices (sustainable development goals voices) ausgewählt – und damit zu einem der offiziellen Botschafter der nachhaltigen Entwicklungsziele der UN.
