Farm to Food Bank

The farm at MASA in Boulder has been running a farm to food program since 2022, supplying local area food pantries and food hubs with farm fresh, nutritious produce that is organic and healthy. This year, the Colorado legislature cut funding by over 50% for this type of program and food pantries are unable to directly purchase food from farms like MASA that are so key to hunger relief. Food pantry participants look forward to the high quality local produce they receive from MASA and others. 
 

Karen Donnelly, EFAA Board Member says, “It thrills me to witness the reaction from the pantry participants when they discover local produce and food items, like those from MASA, at the EFAA food pantry. This represents more than just providing much-needed sustenance, it’s highly nutritional, better quality and flavor, and you can see how it lifts people’s spirits, something so simple, yet important. It offers dignity and a level of richness to their lives.”

MASA is entering peak harvest season and is looking for support from the community (there are 7 food banks / hubs in Boulder they serve) in order to be able to pick and deliver 10,000 pounds of produce to fill the need in the community. It takes about $500 / week to support a single food pantry and there are 10-12 weeks remaining in the season. 
 
Any donation amount is welcome. MASA is a 501c3 and your gift will be recognized with a tax receipt.
