Our monthly Community Food & Resource Festivals bring fresh food, helpful resources, and a sense of community directly into neighborhoods where access can be limited. Each event is designed to be welcoming and engaging, often featuring a local DJ to create a fun, family-friendly atmosphere.

Every household receives a fresh grocery bag along with a prepared meal, providing immediate access to nutritious food. Beyond food distribution, the festivals also offer a range of wraparound services—connecting guests to mental health care, domestic violence intervention, SNAP enrollment assistance, formula and diapers, utility assistance, health screenings, animal care resources, and more.

With activities for kids, hands-on engagement opportunities, and multiple services available in one place, our festivals are designed to make it easier for families to access what they need—both in the moment and over the long term.

Our community gardens provide fresh produce while giving community members the opportunity to get involved, build skills, and harvest food to take home.

They also serve as hands-on learning environments for youth and families, bringing nutrition, agriculture, and the food system to life in a real, accessible way.

As we continue to expand these spaces, our gardens play a key role in increasing access to fresh food and strengthening community connections.

We provide additional distributions throughout the year to respond to specific community needs as they arise. These efforts allow us to expand beyond our regular programming and ensure families have access to food during critical gaps or unique circumstances.

This includes emergency response distributions, school-based efforts like Spring Break meal bags, seasonal and holiday support, and partnerships that help us reach specific populations across our community.

Our aGrow program is a school-based agriculture and nutrition program that gives students hands-on experience with growing food and understanding the food system. Through a combination of indoor growing systems and outdoor gardening, students learn how food is produced while building practical skills in agriculture, entrepreneurship, and sustainability.

Students also participate in weekly nutrition education, where they prepare and try a wide variety of fruits and vegetables, helping build healthier habits and a stronger connection to the food they eat.
