Thanks to all who wrote emails to the council or came to the meeting! There are more design decisions to finalize (colors, final material choices, landscaping, etc.) so stay tuned! NHFC Endorses Assembly Bill 90 We are pleased to announce our first legislative endorsement! As a result of a unanimous vote by NHFC members in our recent poll, we are supporting this important bill, proposed by Assembly members Huffman and Lieu, to prohibit sale or serving of trans fats in our K-12 public schools. 2007 Novato farmers market extendS hours Thanks to the efforts of our steering committee member, Alice Dow, who encouraged community members to email the Farmer’s Market board, the Novato Farmers Market is open from 4:oo—8:00pm this year!

Our mission The Novato Healthy Food Coalition (NHFC) is a non-partisan, grassroots community organization. Our mission is to encourage the availability and variety of healthy lifestyle choices in our local community. The NHFC aims to work with the community, merchants, schools, and the City of Novato to gather information, educate, and provide feedback that will lead to healthy options that meet the needs of Novato today.
The Whole Foods-Pini Mill project (“The Millworks”) is about half complete. There has been some discussion about the project recently. If you did not get a chance to sign the original statement of support for the project (582 of you did, over 3 days, at the time it received final approval), it’s not too late. We would also like to reiterate all the many reasons we support the project — check out our Top 50 Reasons the Millworks is good for Novato!
