Meet Our Local Farm Partners 🍓 🌽 🍏

FARM TO TABLE

Bringing Local Produce to Local Kids

Last year, 30% of TABLE's purchased fresh food was bought from local farmers. Providing fresh food is one of TABLE's key pillars because fruits and vegetables are critical to the body's mental, physical, and emotional development.

We wanted to highlight our amazing farm partners. It is because of them we can provide our kids with a variety of seasonally, fresh food that, in most cases, is delivered to them the same day it is harvested from the farm. Thank you to Elysian Fields Farm, Farmer Foodshare, Gabor Farms, Sankofa Farms, and Wildflower Lane Farm for your support of your community and our kids!

Bringing Local Kids and Local Farmers Together

Did you know TABLE has established a set of Good Food Values? One of which is to prioritize small and mid-sized local farms for fresh food when possible.

In this month's blog, Jennifer talks about why partnering with local, BIPOC farmers is so important to the health of the kids we serve and to encouraging a local, sustainable food ecosystem.
