Our Vision

Linking People – Place – Planet for greater Health and Wellbeing

Our Mission

"The Teladan Project empowers communities with sustainable wellness and food security solutions. Our 1000 Raised Beds initiative champions health, sustainability, and the vision of #BeWell and #Health4All."

Our Approach

The Roots of Health

We believe true wellness grows from the ground up. By connecting people with the earth and each other, we're cultivating a healthier future for South Snohomish County and beyond.

Sustainable Solutions

Our minimalist gardening techniques emphasize simplicity and year-round cultivation of high-yield, beautiful food. Using few inputs, no machinery, and simple tools, we're creating a model for next-generation health solutions.

Relationships as Soil

Just as rich soil nurtures plants, strong community bonds nurture people. Our collaborative approach strengthens connections between neighbors, creating a supportive network of gardeners and health advocates.

The 1000 Raised Beds Project

Our flagship initiative is more than just gardening—it is a movement towards greater access to health for all and environmental harmony across our communities. Here’s how it works:

Simplicity: We keep it simple so everyone can participate year-round.
Sustainability: Focus on seasonal produce and hardy vegetables.
Education: We share knowledge on soil preparation, crop rotation, seed selection, and design.
Community: Bringing neighbors and organizations together for a common cause.
Impact: Saving money, improving lives, and providing surplus for sharing.

Project Benefits and Impact

Teladan's 1000 Raised Beds project is designed to make a significant impact on individual and community well-being:

Cost-Effective: The project reduces the barriers of costs to building raised beds designed for maximal year-round growing. An average seed expenditure of $70 yields over $600 in fresh, healthy, local food, with our designs offering even higher yields.
Skill Development: We address the barrier of lack of gardening skills while serving as a strategic BeWell solution. Participants receive support as they learn to plant high yield, highly nutritious, and typically expensive crops.
Community Impact: The project brings great cost savings, nutrition, sense of community, and psychological wellbeing to participants and their communities.
Empowerment: Through participation, partners develop their skills as agents of change capable of replicating the project.
Comprehensive Approach: The project addresses each domain of our state's BeWell initiative, offering a holistic solution to health and well-being.

Teladan reduces the biggest barriers to getting started - the cost of supplies and support for developing skills - providing significant value to people and communities.
