Our mission: making local sustainable agriculture an important part of our community through farming, education, and community events.
Our organization works with children, families, community groups, environmental and educational institutions to encourage awareness and the creation of sustainable local food systems by offering educational programs and a community supported agriculture demonstration project.
The values that guide this organization are as follows:

- Environmental education
- Protecting ecosystem health
- Strengthening community relationships
- Preserving open space
- Maintaining farming as a viable occupation
