Green Action

Central Texas Food Bank works with food donors, financial supporters and volunteers to fill unmet needs for healthy food in Central Texas.

~ SOME OF OUR PROGRAMS ~

FOOD RESCUE
The Food Bank collects millions of pounds of wholesome, nutritious food—food that would otherwise be discarded. Last year, our food rescue efforts kept nearly 19 million pounds of food from ending up in landfills.

Green Corn Project (GCP) is a grassroots, volunteer-run 501(c)(3) nonprofit that installs organic food gardens for elderly, low-income, and disabled Central Texans, as well as for elementary schools, community centers, and shelters in underserved areas of Austin.

We turn unused land into garden beds that provide food, education, and a sense of accomplishment and pride for all involved in their creation and maintenance.

DIG-INS

The Hill Country Alliance (HCA) is a nonprofit organization whose purpose is to raise public awareness and build community support for preserving the natural heritage of Central Texas Hill Country through conservation and planned growth.

WHAT WE DO

We serve as a resource about Hill Country issues for elected officials at state and local levels, and we collaborate regularly with land trusts, universities, groundwater districts, government agencies, environmental groups and landowners.

Environmental Services protects public health, water quality and the environment.

We work with Portland residents and businesses to protect water quality, public health, and the environment through wastewater collection and treatment, sewer construction and maintenance, stormwater management, and stream and watershed restoration.

Contact us to report sewer problems or spills, reach customer service and more.

Columbia Land Trust

The Columbia Land Trust conserves and cares for the vital lands, waters, and wildlife of the Columbia River region through sound science and strong relationships.

Wetlands and oak woodlands. Columbia River tributaries and Columbia River shores. Forests both wild and working. Natural areas in urban strongholds and wide-open spaces that anchor rural communities.

Miami Is Not Plastic is an initiative for businesses and individuals to reduce Single Use Disposable Plastic, unclog our ocean and save the marine life. We host clean-ups and other events, and partner with several organizations in our quest to protect the environment.

We strive to transform communities through education, awareness and responsible practices. Our goal is to inspire local business in the hospitality, parks and marina sector in the Miami area to adopt alternative options to single use disposable plastic.
