BUILDING A HIGH_WAGE WORKFORCE
Raton's VISTA Volunteer is working to strengthen our local food system.
​
-
The Coal Camp Commercial Kitchen is in operation and accepting applications. If you want to start a food business give us a call.
-
The Raton Intermediate School is working in partnership with the supporters of the Community Garden to build a School Garden. If you want community garden space or want to help our kids learn how to grow food, let us know.
-
The Community Garden, the Raton Farmers Market and the Center are establishing a proposal for the El Portal lot in Raton (across from the Post Office). This project would house gardens, the Farmers Market and a greenhouse, along with community space.
-
A small buying club has been established to gain access to high quality vegetables and other food items. We hope this can grow into a full-fledged food co-op over time.
