On Thursday, Oct. 20, the Vitamin staff visited Ware County Head Begin Middle. There, we discovered about Georgia Organics’ Waycross Household Farm Share Pilot — funded by a Group Transformation Grant that DECAL awarded — to handle childhood meals insecurity for kids ages beginning to 5 in Waycross, Georgia.
The Head Begin workers and Georgia Organics staff confirmed dad and mom find out how to plant spinach and Swiss chard seeds, all whereas discussing meals schooling. Each groups inspired households to register for the Household Farm Share Field.
As a pilot program, Household Farm Share Field supply lasts six weeks and responds to group wants and preferences for recent meals. Taking part households obtain a low-cost bag of locally-grown produce every week. This assist is feasible by a partnership between WayGreen, Georgia Organics, and native farmers.
