Mission and programs · 2024
Mission
OUR MISSION IS TO PROVIDE A LOCAL FOOD SYSTEM THAT SUPPORTS REGENERATIVE AND SUSTAINABLE FARMING PRACTICES BY INCREASING ACCESS TO LOCAL FOOD FOR NORTH LAKE TAHOE. BY ADDRESSING LOCAL FOOD ACCESS CHALLENGES AT A SYSTEMS LEVEL, WE CREATE A HUB FOR LOCAL FOOD. A LOCAL FOOD SYSTEM BENEFITS DIVERSIFIED, FAMILY FARMS LOOKING FOR FAIR MARKET OPPORTUNITIES WHILE INCREASING ACCESS TO LOCAL FOOD FOR OUR MOUNTAIN COMMUNITY. OUR GOAL IS TO CREATE A MORE JUST AND SOVEREIGN FOOD SYSTEM. ONE THAT IS FAIR FOR THE SOIL, FARMER AND OUR COMMUNITY. REGENERATIVE FARMING PRACTICES ALLOW FARMERS TO SEQUESTER CARBON INTO THE SOIL, MITIGATING CLIMATE CHANGE. THESE PRACTICES CREATE SOILS THAT ARE DROUGHT TOLERANT AND YIELD CROPS WITH HIGHER NUTRIENT LEVELS THAN CONVENTIONAL FARMING.

THE FARM TO MARKET PROGRAM (F2M) PROMOTES THE SOURCING AND CONSUMPTION OF REGIONALLY-PRODUCED AND SUSTAINABLY GROWN FOODS. THE PROGRAM REPRESENTS SMALL-SCALE PRODUCERS WITHIN 100-MILES OF NORTH LAKE TAHOE TO ENSURE THEY GET A FAIR PRICE AND TO SHARE THEIR STORY WITH THE END CONSUMER. A REGIONAL MARKETPLACE INCREASES THE DISTRIBUTION OUTLETS FOR SMALL PRODUCERS AND LITERALLY CREATES A "HUB" FOR FARMS AND MARKETS TO SELL AND BUY LOCAL FOOD. IT BRINGS THIS GOOD FOOD INTO THE PLACES WHERE PEOPLE ARE MOST OFTEN EATING AND BUYING FOOD LIKE RESTAURANTS, GROCERY STORES, SCHOOLS, AND HOSPITALS.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those.
