Our Impact

The impact of our programs is most visibly evident in initiatives that stem, at least in part, from ideas and connections formed at our programs. If you're not already familiar with them, please learn about these organizations via these and support them.

Farm to Food Pantry Collaborative: a program that engages farmers to donate produce and trains volunteers to glean, process and distribute nutritious food to Mid-Hudson Valley counties.

Hudson River Watershed Alliance: a collaborative network working to protect the Hudson River watershed.

Phillies Bridge Farm Project: a community-supported farm (CSA) based in New Paltz, NY

Transition Marbletown: A Transition Town group formed in 2010 that has organized screenings, discussions, trainings, and working groups related to healthcare access, green practices, and resource sharing.

Holistic Health Community (initially known as Rondout Valley Holistic Health): Offers free holistic healthcare to the public.

Below you can learn more about the Mohonk Consultations events that helped incubate these organizations.
