The mission of Grow Local South Texas is to grow a healthy local community by improving access to, education about and advocacy for affordable nutrient dense foods.
We are committed to maintaining a necessary point of food access in the Coastal Bend through the Grow Local Farmers’ Market, connecting local farmers with our community to provide food and essentials, as well as artisanal products from local businesses.
Grow Local also provides educational opportunities to farmers and food producers in agriculture and business development. Educational programming includes community and youth-specific education, garden management and online resources.
