theMOVE spreads the power of food by connecting urban dwellers hands-on to the land and labor that sustain us. We organize farm volunteer workdays primarily for urban youth, low-income families, and people of color. Our work fosters reflection, critical thinking and practical connections to farms, in order to bring about positive change at the personal level, that will build a critical mass to bring about a culture shift towards a healthier, more sustainable food system in Metro Boston. We serve as the facilitators between a network of community partners, schools and urban youth workers and farming and food producers, creating learning communities for information sharing, emotional connection and a call to action for participants.
