Just over a week ago, we held our third Food Distribution Project of the year and our 14th to date! ❤️
The variety of culturally relevant produce in this edition was incredible! From more than eight varieties of beans to locally grown favorites like chilacayote, ejote oaxaqueño, and tomatillo, these boxes celebrated the diversity of our local food system and the communities it serves.
Once again, we brought together local farmers, community partners, staff, and volunteers to get fresh, culturally relevant food into the hands of local families.
This project would not be possible without the generous support of North Sound ACH, whose funding helps us address food insecurity while creating markets for local farmers. A special thank you to Puget Sound Food Hub for once again contributing to this year's boxes, and to Catholic Community Services of Western Washington Farmworker Center--whose partnership is essential to making these distributions possible. We're so grateful to work alongside you to get fresh, culturally relevant food into the hands of local families.
