PROVIDE HOMEGROWN PRODUCE

Does your garden have food to share? Fresh Food Connect partners with IFCS and other hunger relief nonprofits to connect gardeners with community members that are experiencing food insecurity. Using their app, gardeners can schedule drop-off donations of homegrown produce at IFCS and we will distribute it to hungry households in our community through our Food Market.
