Collection: Sustainable Food Center
In Austin, Batch is proud to partner with Sustainable Food Center to help more people have access to locally grown, delicious, nutritious food for themselves and their families.
To promote our partnership and get you in on the goodness, we've got two (for now) batches that benefit their work and mission
With each purchase of these batches, we'll make a donation to the Sustainable Food Center and their awesome work. And, with each subscription we send, we'll make an additional donation to further their impact.
About Sustainable Food Center:
Sustainable Food Center cultivates a healthy community by strengthening the local food system and improving access to nutritious, affordable food. SFC envisions a food-secure community where all children and adults grow, share, and prepare healthy, local food. From seed to table, SFC creates opportunities for individuals to make healthy food choices and to participate in a vibrant local food system. Through organic food gardening, relationships with area farmers, interactive cooking classes and nutrition education, children and adults have increased access to locally grown food and are empowered to improve the long-term health of Central Texans and our environment.
Programs:
Grow Local empowers children and adults to grow their own food by offering the education and resources they need to start and sustain gardens at schools, homes, and areas accessible to neighborhood residents.
Farm Direct connects local growers with schools, urban residents, and institutional food service operations worksites in demand of fresh produce through weekly SFC Farmers’ Markets and direct marketing projects, such as farm-to-cafeteria, farm-to-school, and farm-to-work.
The Happy Kitchen/La Cocina Alegre® is a nationally recognized cooking and nutrition education program that nurtures skills in food selection and preparation.
