ABOUT US
We are a dynamic non-profit in Burlington, VT that implements innovative, replicable and place-based solutions to address some of global agriculture’s most pressing problems. We are transforming the food system from one that is degrading, anonymous and industrial, to one that is restorative, familiar and human-scale. We are working to foster a local food economy that is good for people and the planet.
Farms
We are increasing the viability of farming in Vermont by growing new farmers, helping existing farms grow their businesses, and by developing markets for producers.
Land
We are promoting the sustainable use of agricultural lands by taking care of the one-of-a-kind Intervale, and by growing and planting tens of thousands of native trees and shrubs each year along Vermont’s rivers and streams to protect water quality.
people
We are engaging our community in the food system by celebrating fresh, local food through public events at the Intervale and through our statewide food access work.
