F.R.E.S.H. New London

Food: Resource, Education, Security, Health

 Our mission is to encourage and empower broad participation in the hands on transformation of our food system from what it is to what it ought to be:

 

Healthy, Just, Sustainable, Accessible, Productive and Beautiful!

 

We envision broad participation in and universal access to a robust, productive, equitable, healthful and sustainable local food system in New London, Connecticut.

 

Practical agricultural projects will proliferate in our county; these will be vibrant and varied and well supported. They will include enterprises from seed to plate to generate money and jobs as well as educational and wellness programs to influence public health, community development, social justice and ecological stewardship.

 

Healthy food will become the norm in our community as we help all people gain universal access to the opportunities, resources and knowledge necessary to eat well and live happily.  

 

New London ranks 154 out of 169 CT towns and cities in food security. FRESH New London is trying to change that!
