| Atlas Cultural Foundation ACF works in Morocco’s remote Atlas Mountains and is currently focused on development in the region of Zawiya Ahansal. Isolated within rugged mountains, Zawiya Ahansal’s 15,000 inhabitants are among the poorest people in North Africa; living without adequate health care, education, nourishing food and clean water. Working with a holistic, integrated approach to development ACF understands that community needs cannot be solved in isolation because they are all interrelated. ACF facilitates successful projects by focusing on the problems of the entire region and matching experienced partners, local, international or governmental, with community needs. Start-up resources, training and knowledge are provided for long-term, sustainable impact. www.atlasculturalfoundation.org |
| The Adirondack Green Circle was started in 2007 by Gail Brill after reading Barbara Kingsolver's book, Animal, Vegetable, Miracle. At our monthly meeting we discuss ways to affect change in our own lives and in our community. See calendar for schedule. Our Mission is to create a forum that will educate and inspire both ourselves and our community to choose sustainable living practices. Sustainability means meeting the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs. By promoting these practices in our lives and in the community, we move towards living in harmony with our earth and each other. www.adkgreencircle.org |
| Common Ground Garden formed in the fall of 2008 to increase access to fresh vegetables and fruits for Saranac Lake area residents, and to explore sustainable growing practices through education and hands-on experimentation. www.slgarden.com |
