Who we are

Our Vision

Fitness on the Move Global envisions a world where individuals take control of their wellness, striving towards healthier versions of themselves. We provide an environment filled with love, patience, and consistency to inspire and motivate our members about their health. By encouraging individuals to cultivate, plant, and harvest their own crops, we foster a deeper connection not only to their personal health but also to their community.

Our Mission

Our mission is to harness the power of education and movement to promote wellness, the production, and consumption of natural foods through home and community gardening. Through our Agricultural Wellness Program, we aim to show individuals the true value of their health and empower them to embrace a healthier lifestyle.

Our program

Cultivate. Plant. Harvest.

We understand the profound impact that a connection to nature and community can have on an individual's health. That's why we encourage our participants to cultivate, seed, and harvest their own crops. This hands-on approach not only promotes physical wellness but also strengthens ties to the community.

What we grow

Moringa, the tree we keep coming back to.

One of the plants we grow and teach with is moringa. The leaves carry a lot in a small amount — protein, potassium, calcium, vitamins A and C — which is part of why it has been used for generations as food and as medicine. We grow it in the beds, dry it, and show people how to use it at home.
