Common Roots grew out of a gathering of parents, teachers, and farmers who originally met in 2005 to discuss health, nutrition, and food systems. Today we are a 501(c)3 nonprofit community organization connecting farmers, educators, youth, families, and the wider community in building a sustainable future through place-based education and service programs.

Our main objectives are to:

Provide programs and services that support youth in growing as responsible global citizens.
Advocate for improved school food systems and sustainable local agriculture.
Cultivate partnerships that strengthen food security and create community.
Provide hands-on learning experiences to advance food and nutrition awareness.
Support community engagement through internships and service learning opportunities
