Our purpose is to "Educate, Connect, Inspire."

- Educate each other and the public about environmental issues
- Connect like-minded people, foster networking, mutual support, and information exchange
- Inspire eco-conscious and holistic living

We are residents of Miami who are interested in the environment and ensuring that our civilization functions as environmentally friendly as possible.

Our mission is to rescue surplus food, help the hungry, and promote public health through education and peer-to-peer advocacy.
