What We Are About
Our commitment to increasing access to healthy, locally produced food for underserved communities focuses on building capacity to serve underserved communities by increasing goods and services in our local food system, increasing food access through community partnerships and education, and reaching diverse partners who meet the dietary and cultural preferences of underserved communities. Through this approach, we aim to increase access to healthy foods while strengthening local food security and building a more resilient regional food system.
Our Goals
Building Capacity to Serve Underserved Communities
Spring Creek works to increase the overall supply of goods or services through partnerships with local producers to improve and expand their production, and to ensure that healthy food is available when and where needed by underserved communities. Spring Creek provides expertise and education for growers designed to increase capacity to reach these communities.
Increasing Food Access
Through Community Partnerships & Education
Spring Creek is dedicated to increasing food access for underserved communities by building and strengthening partnerships with community-based organizations who reach our most vulnerable populations. By connecting these organizations with our local food system, Spring Creek reduces barriers to access and supports the well-being of underserved communities.
Reaching Diverse
Partners & Communities
Spring Creek aims to meet people where they are – working with diverse partners who reach individuals with a variety of dietary and cultural preferences. Spring Creek aims to understand and address the needs of individuals served by our partners community organization, ensure that foods are appropriate and accessible for different populations, and create solutions tailored to meet the specific needs of diverse communities.
