Our mission
Valley Verde increases self-sufficiency, health, and resilience, through a culturally informed community based food system to promote food justice.
What we envision
We envision a Silicon Valley that has reconnected to its agricultural roots and resources, where there is food access and a healthy lifestyle for all.
Food Sovereignty
Valley Verde's work is guided by the principles of food sovereignty, where local communities form a just and participatory food system that honors the relationship between the people and the land, builds generational knowledge and skills, recognizes food as sacred and a right for all.
How we do it
Buy One. Give One.
Our healthy communities are thriving and generating sustainable income by growing seedlings in their backyards and providing others with the possibility of cultivating their heritage food ingredients.
With the purchase of a Valley Verde seedling subscription, you contribute to the empowerment and development of low-income communities in the South Bay, and you provide access to culturally preferred vegetables, environmental education and edible gardens.
All proceeds from sales are used to fund our community programs.
