Learn how our programs come together to nourish our neighborhood, share knowledge, and build lasting connections that empower community members to get involved and make a difference.
Access to fresh, affordable food impacts the health and well-being of communities. Our work is dedicated to increasing access to fresh food, especially in communities that have been historically excluded.
Throughout the past year we’ve maintained a commitment to community connection through our work with Iles Community Garden, joining Central Illinois Food Bank’s weekly Kid’s Market, and the upcoming incorporation of cooking classes.
A more connected community is a healthier community. We plan, coordinate, and collaborate on community events to bring people together over a shared love for fresh food.
Whether you’d like to volunteer, receive updates, or share your skills, we’d love to stay connected.
