St.Mary's Nutrition Center/ Lots to Gardens

 As one of the newest health services offered by St. Mary's Health System, the Nutrition Center works to improve the nutritional status of all Maine residents. The Center strives to be a community resource and works towards promoting overall community wellness and providing all people with access to nutritious food, the opportunity to learn and implement healthy and safe eating practices, the support to make lifestyle changes that reduce the risk of nutrition related diseases and the ability to promote personal food security through growing one’s own food. Additional goals include providing the opportunity for those involved in nutrition related fields to meet on a professional basis to collaborate and share information around local, state, and federal nutrition initiatives.
