Our Purpose

Mission: We foster an equitable, community-driven transition to a regenerative future through public education, skills-building, and environmental connection.Our vision is a just and equitable southern New England powered by deep democracy and a regenerative economy rooted in belonging, care, and cooperation. We envision a region where all families have access to the healing power of nature, sustainable energy, dignified housing, and nutritious food without the systemic barriers of racism, poverty, and mass incarceration.
