One of the many things I am thankful for are our local Food Banks & charitable organizations that…read moreallow us to contribute both monetary & in-kind donations on a regular basis to help those who are in-need. Due the 2020 COVID-19 pandemic, however, many of our local Food Banks ceased accepting in-kind donations from private donors. This was despite the long lines of hundreds of cars filled with families lined up for hours to obtain donated food due to loss of jobs, incomes, homes, & more. In addition to being saddened to hear of the tragic loss of lives, seeing how many individuals & families were at-risk for going hungry due to the economic impact of the 2020 COVID-19 pandemic brought tears to my eyes. So...in addition to monetary contributions, I still wanted to do more to help others in-need. After pondering the age-old question, "What can I do?" I went online & found "The Little Free Pantry." Headquartered in Arkansas, "The Little Free Pantry" started as a grassroots mini pantry movement of neighbors-feeding-neighbors. It has grown to locations throughout the United States (& now global), & is similar to the "Free Little Library" concept. Instead of books, you can donate food, personal care, &/or paper items to those who are in-need, or take what you need if you need it...no questions asked! The pantry will usually appear as a wooden box affixed to the top of a post --- similar-looking to a giant doll or bird house with a door you can open to leave & take items on-&/or-off the shelves, & are found at locations such as churches, parks, community centers, or even outside of a neighbor's house! Interested? Simply visit their website at: http://www.littlefreepantry.org, enter a zip code near you, & check it out! Unfortunately, there was no "The Little Free Pantry" near us, so we drove to Long Beach where one was located outside of a church. We were sad to see that the shelves were bare (except for a few pieces of trash), but it enabled us to fill the pantry with lots of goods! If you have an opportunity, check out "The Little Free Pantry," & (if you would like), make a donation to help someone in-need. Or if you need to, feel free to stop-by & grab what you need...someone may have left a little something for you. Who knows? We just may open a "Little Free Pantry" of our very own!

Food on the Move is one of my favorite nonprofits. They focus on transforming food deserts into…read morefood-secured areas through food distribution, educational programs, workforce development, health assessments, and innovative solutions. Taylor Hanson started it in 2014 after being inspired by U.N. Ambassador Edward J. Perkins (he oversaw the end of South Africa's apartheid government and the release of Nelson Mandela while serving as the US Ambassador to South Africa). They host mobile food events and foster the return of permanent grocery stores and healthy food systems. Their monthly Community Events bring together partners, health resources, and have a pay-as-you-can model for fresh produce and prepared meals. They make it fun by having local DJs, food trucks, art classes, and more. They also have community gardens and teach an afterschool program in schools focused on teaching innovative urban farming systems, like hydroponics. I'm super excited for them to build their Food Home, which will be a community space with a market, urban farm, and food hub. I learn so much about the importance of micro greens and sustainable food practices from them.
