A movement for everyone
— regardless of race, ethnicity, gender identity, sexuality, survivor status, ability, nationality, language, economic status, appearance, age, religion, immigration or documentation status, background, health, or any other personal characteristic.
We practice consensus-based decision-making that makes time for all opinions to be aired. We also work to create a community that holds space for the wisdom and experience of Black, Brown, and Indigenous people, immigrants, members of LGBTQIA+ communities, women, elders, the chronically ill, differently abled, and immuno-compromised people, and all others who are far too often marginalized by our society — or worse. We do not tolerate violence or oppressive behavior of any kind.
In 2020 the Cooperative Gardens Commission (CGC) was able to source and redistribute seeds for 257 seed hubs, across 41 states, supplying 12,000 gardens. In alignment with TVCGCoop, Mary K joined CGC in April and became involved in multiple working groups. As part of the Media, Design & Messaging WG she collaborated to create this 44 page report, detailing the work of the national decentralized effort to cultivate as much food as possible.
