Food Shift

It’s #foodjusticefriday! The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) recently proposed changes to the Women, Infants, and Children (WIC) program that would expand access to more fresh fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and fish – all essential components of a nutritious diet. BIPOC folks and other marginalized groups are disproportionately affected by the lack of access to affordable, nutrient-dense foods, which has been connected to chronic illness.

Food Shift

On National Agriculture Day, we're taking the opportunity to celebrate the unsung heroes who make our meals possible - the hardworking farmworkers. Our Operation Together program has allowed us to partner with organizations like @dsaldigdeepfarms (pictured above) who cultivate some of the beautiful vegetables that we distribute throughout the week. As you sit down to eat, take a moment to appreciate the farmworkers’ hardworking hands that have grown and nurtured your meal, thank a local farmer, or explore how agriculture shows up in our day-to-day lives.

Food Shift

At Food Shift, our focus is on maximizing food use by recovering edible food that would otherwise go to waste and redistributing it. As part of our commitment to sustainability and justice, we’re celebrating Global Recycling Day which recognizes the importance of recycling in preserving resources to secure the healthy future of Earth.

Make it your mission to properly sort the items that you recycle. By doing so, we can help reduce the amount of waste that ends up in landfills and promote the conservation of natural resources.
