Our Purpose is:
• To build visibility, knowledge and skills related to our local food system by developing and delivering workshops, courses, and other education programs
• To support access to local, healthy food for all Nanaimo area people; particularly those with low income
• To encourage local sustainability in access to and choice of local food
Our goal is to increase individual and community food security by providing initiatives that facilitate equitable access to food in empowering ways.
