Vine & Fig supports the incubation of projects that focus on social justice and ecological healing.

Each has its own leadership committee and receives nonprofit status through New Community Project.

Give-Solar

​

If a community-powered solar project could work for one nonprofit, we thought, why not for others? And so Give Solar was born.

50 by 25 Clean Energy for All

​

The 50 by 25 campaign originated in compassion for the earth and our neighbors, and moving toward a clean energy transition can help build a sustainable future. We are a group of Harrisonburg residents and neighbors based out of Renew Rocktown. The campaign is a call for the city to take action on climate change, increase renewable energy, and make home energy costs affordable through energy efficiency programs. We also want to promote a cultural shift that encourages individual creative actions to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and overall consumption and increase community participation and empowerment.
