Green Action

From seed to table, Austin’s Sustainable Food Center creates opportunities for individuals to make healthy food choices and to participate in a vibrant local food system. Through organic food gardening, relationships with area farmers, interactive cooking classes, and nutrition education, we strive to empower children and adults in Austin with increased access to locally grown, healthy, and affordable food.

OUR PROGRAMS

The Oregon State Parks Foundation is the only statewide non-profit partner of the Oregon Parks and Recreation Department dedicated to raising funds that will enhance and preserve the experience of using the 255 Oregon State Parks, now and for generations to come.

Since 1995, the Foundation has supported many vital projects such as restoring Vista House at Crown Point, helping to renovate five Oregon Lighthouses, preserving the Kam Wah Chung & Co Museum, and putting the first yurts in State Parks anywhere in the country.

Environment Texas is a citizen-based advocacy project of Environment America that defends our environment with independent research, tough-minded advocacy and spirited grassroots action.

When decisions are being made about our environment, our elected officials hear plenty from the oil companies, developers and other powerful interests.

We make the case for our environment and help people like you make your voice heard through petitions, emails, letters, canvassing, phone calls and more, all delivered to the right people just when it matters most.

Our mission is to create awareness about the plight of the environment, to educate the public about caring for our planet, humanity and the environment, to run recycling operations and to support environmental projects and programs locally and globally.

Some of our projects:

Through our green drop off bins we provide a convenient way for people in local communities to drop their unwanted clothes and other items.
