We made it to the weekend! We hope you can all take a deep breath and find your source of calm. During these tiring times, it is so important to take care of yourself 💚

¡Llegamos al fin de semana! Esperamos que todos puedan respirar profundamente y que encuentren su fuente de calma. En estos tiempos tan difíciles, es muy importante cuidarse a uno mismo.

Meet Brittny Wilson, one of Farm2People’s board members! Brittny runs a consulting and recruitment firm where she helps nonprofits build strong development strategies; with this expertise, she helps Farm2People with our growth and fundraising goals. 🌾 Fun fact: we actually started out as a client of hers!

Brittny feels passionate about Farm2People because our work has two clear and meaningful beneficiaries: farmers are paid fairly for their crops 👩🏻‍🌾, and communities gain access to fresh, nutritious food 🍎 through trusted partners like food banks.

Outside of work, Brittny loves to spend time outside with her family. She enjoys a perfectly ripe summer tomato (who doesn’t!), and she is obsessed with Halloween. 🎃 Last summer, a volunteer pumpkin plant in her yard produced 11 white pumpkins – she was thrilled!

Check out Farm2People’s impact for the month of April! We remain steadfast in our commitment to maintaining an equitable supply chain and bridging the gap between our local and regional farms and the LA community. In April, those efforts included supporting 28 farms, delivering 157,029 lbs of produce and providing 1,122,249 servings of fruits and vegetables to food seekers in the Greater LA area! We are deeply grateful to our donors, funders, and supporters who are passionate about local food systems and healthy food access; your support enables all that we do!
