Home Grown Food's mission is to inspire individuals to develop and sustain organic food-producing gardens in backyards and on private and public land...and to build competence, community and joy while doing it!

The Growing Project promotes the value of a strong, diverse, and just local food system to all residents of Northern Colorado through direct agricultural experiences and education.
More specifically, The Growing Project is focused on addressing issues surrounding local food security by connecting all members of the community to their food system, promoting community food efforts, offering food, nutrition, agriculture, and sustainable self-sufficiency education classes, and increasing the supply of fresh local produce.

Slow Food Western Slope functions as a chapter of Slow Food USA, a non-profit educational organization.  Our chapter covers a good stretch of land in Mesa, Delta and Montrose counties in western Colorado.  This area is rich in farms, orchards, ranches, vineyards and the arts and epitomizes the concepts of Slow Food - people live Slow Food.  We actively support school programs and sponsor the Kids’ Pasta Project. We also hold events that celebrate the good, clean food of the area.

Transition Colorado's mission is to inspire, encourage, network, support and train communities as they consider, adopt, adapt and implement the transition model in order to establish a Transition Initiative.
