Mission and programs · 2024
Mission

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.

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. Earlier years are each on their own filing page.

Nonprofiteer parses Forms 990, 990-EZ and 990-PF, in a window of recent tax years. These returns are recorded from the IRS e-file index, so their figures were extracted by that index rather than read from the return here — treat them as a different source from the filings above, not as more of the same record. A dash means the index carries no figure; Form 990-T listings carry none at all.
Grants made
No itemized grants to organizations. Schedule I is filed only by organizations that granted more than $5,000 to a recipient, so most filers have none.

Other IRS files
Auto-Revocation List
Not listed. The IRS publishes this list for organizations whose exemption was automatically revoked for failing to file for three consecutive years.
Publication 78
Listed as of 13 October 2026, under deductibility PC.
These are two separate IRS files on two separate schedules, shown as published and not reconciled with each other. Neither is a statement about whether a contribution is deductible today: 19,245 organizations appear in Publication 78 while the IRS's own revocation file lists them as currently revoked, more than half of those revoked before 2019. Absence from Publication 78 is evidence of nothing, and presence is not evidence either. Verify current status with the IRS before relying on it.
What this page reflects
The registration facts above come from the IRS Business Master File published 13 October 2026 and read 29 October 2026, for every organization at once. Returns through tax year 2024, the newest we have parsed for this organization.
