Nonprofit Overview

Mission: Our mission is to inspire people to eat healthy, sustainably grown food and to steward our natural resources for future generations. By creating connections to, curiosity about, and confidence in nature, Oxbow Education (OxEd) lays the foundation for future stewards of the Earth, giving people the tools and inspiration to cultivate their own relationship with their community, the food they eat, and the natural world.
Direct beneficiaries per year: nearly 7000 young learners; local food banks and community relief programs; Snoqualmie River habitat restoration efforts
Geographic areas served: Oxbow is a 30-acre organic vegetable farm and center for environmental education and restoration located in the Snoqualmie River Valley.
Programs: Oxbow’s environmental education programs connect kids with their food through hands-on, experiential learning. We welcome thousands of children onto the farm each season through our school field trip and summer camp programs and our farmers visit local classrooms during the winter months.
