Building Community

Everyone has a place here

Creating community around a resilient and joyful local food system is the heart beet of our work.

Feelings of isolation and disconnection are at the root of the distress many of us feel in this day and age, with true connection with neighbors and the land that connects us is in short supply. With the growing polarization that divides us, finding common ground is more important than ever.

The good news? We all need to eat, and growing and sharing food is a timeless practice for bringing people together.

Kearsarge Food Hub creates opportunities for neighbors to come together through shared initiatives and community projects, events and gatherings; and nurtures an online space for caring individuals to learn and connect.
