Mission Greener Partners is contributing to the resurgence of farming activity within the Greater Philadelphia region by transforming public spaces and underutilized land into community teaching gardens and forward-thinking farms. By reestablishing sustainable, organic farming operations, Greener Partners is impacting the way people think about their food and the environment. Greener Partners is engaging local schools, camps, and communities to bring children and their families outside to develop a better understanding of how the natural world is our future. Vision Greener Partners envisions a future where our communities have easy access to local, organic foods. These fresh and seasonal foods will provide better health for our families and our communities. Our environment benefits through the creation of a food system reliant on local farms and businesses that are less dependent on fossil fuels. Creating jobs and opportunities for farmers, we nurture a community of local food producers that respect the land and our health by utilizing organic growing methods. Once people embrace local foods, they will feel compelled and capable to care for their communities and our planet. |
