A Partnership to Help Alleviate Food Insecurity

After having to suspend their farm stand last week due to the current circumstances, our dear friends at Veggielution reached out to us with the desire to do farm box deliveries. We jumped on board with their mission to provide fresh, organic veggies to food insecure individuals and families in East San Jose. From helping coordinate box deliveries to packing out produce, working side by side we made it happen this week!

Our partnership with Veggielution has deep roots. As a non-profit community farm, their mission is to connect people from diverse backgrounds outdoors through food and farming to build community in East San Jose. Each year, Veggielution connects thousands of Silicon Valley residents with programs that encourage experiential learning and healthy eating. In fact, quite a few of our Spade & Plow crew members have served as volunteers and staff members at Veggielution in the past.

A huge shoutout to Lee Stephenson, Emily Schwing, and the rest of the Veggielution crew for all their dedication and hard work! We are so honored to be a part!
