We Believe in Food Justice for All

Together we are growing a more equitable and sustainable food system in Southern Maine.

Food and the ability to grow it is a basic human right.

Founded in 2001, Cultivating Community is building a movement through programs that provide joyful outdoor educational experiences, fresh culturally important foods grown by and for immigrants and communities of color, and community growing spaces.
