Yesterday we asked for a little help.

One of our community fridges had broken down, and we weren't sure how we were going to cover the repairs.

Less than 24 hours later, because of your generosity, we went from worrying about how we'd fix it to seeing an incredible outpouring of support.

Thank you to everyone who donated, shared our post, or reached out to help. Every contribution reminds us that this community shows up for one another when it matters most.

We're grateful for each of you. 🙏

Thank you to Jocelyn for coordinating our third ServSafe cohort, we always appreciate the chance to work with you and build with our friends in Hartford.

ServSafe not only makes sure that we know we're serving each other in safe ways but also gives people certification needed to run kitchens, food businesses and keep money and opportunities in their communities.

Special thanks to for making it possible to grow the ecosystem 🙏🏾

Today we wrapped our first ServSafe cohort. Grateful to everyone who showed up and put the work in. Huge thanks to Bjorn for leading a class that was engaging and genuinely enjoyable.

This cohort was offered at no cost to support and uplift BIPOC community members who are building food based businesses and programs. As a collaborative, we see education that builds skills and strengthens capacity as core to the work, and this was an important step forward.

Thank you to for helping make this possible. More opportunities coming soon.
