Vision

To improve Galveston community health through addressing food insecurity, promoting positive diet and lifestyle changes, and supporting mental health. We aspire to create and maintain a sustainable garden and health community in Galveston.

The goal of the site is to provide a user-friendly interface with which patients can both acquire this information and sign themselves up for classes and volunteering.

Reduce social isolation, depression, and anxiety among the community.

Promote a proactive, preventative approach to health by providing cooking, yoga, and fitness classes in a budget friendly, reproducible fashion
