Our Goals

Who doesn’t crave food bursting with flavor and aroma? Just consider a perfectly ripe mango. Nothing smells better, and what is more gratifying than a warm, juicy bite that leaves sweet nectar dripping down your chin? We aim to enrich the community through sharing our knowledge and passion for food forestry. Together, we can make a difference and help to decrease pervasive health problems and food insecurity among children in Florida.
