Mission Statement

To strengthen the local food community in Western Washington county by improving access to nourishing local food, supporting growers and producers, and exchanging knowledge with the community.

Description

Dairy Creek Community Food Web's niche differs from that of food banks and pantrys. By serving to connect, support, and educate all members of the local food system we hope to increase food security and help ensure access to healthful, local food. In the hope of furthering our goals, we provide a free educational food-related film every month and sponsor various classes in gardening, food preservation, and talks on food justice topics. We work with several other groups in providing activities of interest to growers and eaters alike. Our current goals include getting a nutritional garden at every local school, opening a gardening and food book lending library, and promoting the establishment of a year-round farmer's market, and increasing the number of community gardens.
