Mission and programs · 2024

Mission

The purpose of City Fresh is to create a just, inclusive, thriving local food system that nourishes us all, sustains farmers in their stewardship of the land, and protects our soil and waterways.

  • We aim to ensure that all communities, especially those underserved, have access to nutritious, affordable food. We work to achieve this vision through several key initiatives. Our Farm Box program provides weekly deliveries of fresh produce to neighborhoods, making healthy food accessible and affordable. We are committed to paying farmers fairly, ensuring they can maintain their livelihoods while contributing to a robust local food economy. The New Farmer Incubator program supports new and aspiring farmers by offering land, resources, and mentorship to help them succeed in sustainable farming. By combining these efforts, we aim to create a thriving community where fresh, nutritious food is available to all.

    Expenses $258,039

  • The George Jones Farm lives on a 70 acre farmstead, combining production areas for regenerative farming with habitat preservation in forest and wetlands. The George Jones Memorial Farm is an innovative educational site with abundant resources and activities for students and the greater community. We provide opportunities to utilize conventional organic and inventive methods for cultivation. Along with annual row crops, we employ perennial systems (perennial rows, food forest, medicine trails), high tunnel hoop houses, rotational systems, and fruit and nut cultivation. Working collaboratively, our efforts are supported and enacted by a network of students, researchers, community members, volunteers, and local institutions to build a more healthy and equitable local food system.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those.
