Through all the challenges of 2020, FRESHFARM has remained committed to our mission to support sustainable agriculture and improve food access and equity in the Mid-Atlantic region.

Through FoodPrints live classes, our staff are engaging students in lessons based on our curriculum with creative adaptations for virtual learning. We are focusing on reinforcing academic learning, fostering independence, and bringing joy to learning, as we did while we were together in the classroom.

FRESHFARM’s food access work at our markets helps to provide fresh food to at-risk neighbors at affordable prices, and helps to make access to nutritious food more equitable. This fall, we’re supporting food access and equity across the DC metro area through our Thanksgiving FRESH Food Drive and the FRESH Match program. 

The Pop Up Food Hub facilitates connections between small farmers, local partners, and families in need to make sure everyone can enjoy equal access to nutritious, local produce -- even during a pandemic.

FRESHFARM is helping childcare communities come together around the table with healthy food and peer-education.
