Community Partner Highlight: Intervale Center

At the Intervale Center, we believe that good food can change the world.

We work to foster a local food economy that is good for people and the planet by growing new farmers and developing markets for producers, promoting the sustainable use of agricultural lands, and ensuring that delicious, wholesome local food is available to anyone who wants it. We also nurture a community food culture that values taste, tradition, health, responsibility, and conviviality.

The Intervale Center manages 350 acres of land for sustainable agriculture, conservation and recreation in the heart of Burlington, Vermont. Our land is open, year-round, to the public for walking, biking and cross-country skiing. We also host seasonal community events like Summervale (www.intervale.org/summervale), a nine-week celebration of local food, farms, and friends (don’t miss City Market’s “Make it from Scratch” activity table!), and Wintervale (www.intervale.org/wintervale).

We are incredibly grateful to City Market members and staff for partnering with us, helping us further our mission and providing us the opportunity to help you achieve your Global Ends!
