From an empty lot to providing over 5,000 lbs of food per year, the Market Garden here at the Fairbanks is something we are incredibly proud to be partnering with @growlocalSCG on!

Poverty-driven hunger and food waste are serious concerns in our community. @growlocalSCG works to support a health conscious and environmentally-friendly method of eradicating these distressing issues. Our office is so proud to partner with them on their efforts.

Making sure the food security of those we serve is addressed is one of the many integral things that we do here at the DLF.
We would like to thank our friends at @growlocalSCG for their continued support that allows us to give our RISE members such delicious and nutritious food

“If I could sell to anybody, I would sell to the school lunch programs. Then we start those little healthy bodies young, and we change those palates to look forward to delicious whole grain foods.” buff.ly/3njgh5q
