Salinas, California is a small city surrounded by an abundance of agriculture and rich whole foods, yet it is a food dessert area.(The
federal government defines
food deserts as areas
“in the U.S. with limited
access to affordable and
nutritious food, particularly
such an area composed
of predominantly lowerincome
neighborhoods and
communities." Our mission is to empower families in Salinas, CA ab
out the benefits of adapting an affordable plant based diet. We want to build a healthier, stronger, more sustainable Salinas community. This page was created to begin a conversation to critically think about what we feed our bodies and the long terms negative/positive effects they have on them. We want to inspire small changes that in the long run will create bigger and more meaningful ones. Inspired by the documentary Plant Pure Nation.
