Food Access

Nourishing Families While Building Stability

Through EDEN’s Food Access initiatives, families receive fresh produce, nutritious groceries, and essential food support.

Why Food Access Matters

EDEN’s food access work ensures that families do not have to choose between groceries, transportation, rent, childcare, or other necessities.

What We’ve Distributed

Through community partnerships, EDEN has distributed:

35,000+

pounds of fresh produce

350+

grocery and produce baskets

1,000+

hygiene baskets

10,000+

diapers

…and thousands of additional essential items to families.

Food access is integrated into our broader economic mobility strategy because families cannot focus on employment, savings, housing, or education while struggling to meet basic nutritional needs.

Our Community Garden

At the EDEN Pilot Garden, we grow fresh produce for EDEN families. Take a look at the garden in the video below.

Powered by Community

Our food access work is made possible with the help of community growers, businesses, healthcare organizations, and local partners, including About Fresh.

It continues to expand through food distribution, community donations, nutrition education, and partnerships.
