To be the healthiest community in America.

Values

Food Is Life
Healthy food access and knowledge is at the center of our work — from feeding the hungry and hosting farmers markets, to cultivating gardens and teaching cooking classes.

Making Connections
We create opportunities for gathering, learning, and sharing.

Whole Person Health
We believe in mind-body connections and strive to create programs that encourage movement to improve both physical and mental health.

Experiencing Nature
We celebrate the seasons and encourage our community to embrace the transformational power and healing energy of the outdoors.

Focus on Prevention
The overall well-being of our community is improved when we examine, understand, and address the root causes of conditions that limit healthy living.

Working Together
We are dedicated to service and best accomplish our mission when we collaborate with partners, volunteers, and donors.
