We need your help to raise $15,000 to fund our Farm to Family Program. It’s going to be an exciting day of donation celebration, and it starts bright and early! Get a good night’s sleep and make sure your P2P fundraising page is ready to go. We’re going to need your social sharing powers on September 24th. Because of the COVID-19 pandemic and in partnership with Thunder Studios and Chef Eugene Sanchez we were able to create the Farm to Family Program. Using our organically grown produce we are able to feed our neighbors at the Elizabeth Ann Seton House in Long Beach. As our program has developed and the needs of our community has changed, we are seeing how our farm can serve our community even more.
This month we also started supporting the homeless services at Catholic Charities on 14th Street. Unlike the residents at the Seton House this location also serves as a food pantry. Eugene and Sasha saw the needs when they dropped off the first 140 meals and instantly brainstormed how we can bring more produce, pantry items, preserved farm items and full meals to our community.
Our unhoused and underserved are in need and with your donations we will be able to produce more so we can give more. All of our produce is specifically grown for donation purposes to serve those who need it most. Giving to Farm Lot 59 helps us to fulfill our mission and support our community in ways we never knew we could. Thank you for your support! |
