Education Programs

As a small and strongly community rooted organization in a region, we focus on initiatives that foster health, justice and food and energy resiliency in our own region. Learn more on this page about our past and present education programs in, with, and for the community.

We ran several food distribution programs in 2020 in partnership with the Quabbin Harvest Community Market, providing Recipes for Wellness, Senior Farmshare, and Stocking Up Shares for low-income families and elders.

We are committed to creating program groups that are diverse in regards to culture and race, age, and life experience. We make this free opportunity available to low-income women who live in the North Quabbin region who want to enhance wellbeing, learn new things, and who would benefit from time with a supportive, diverse group of women in a relaxing outdoor setting.
