Marra Farm Giving Garden Work Party (Group)

Do you want to end hunger in your community?

Imagine a city wherepeople have equal access to healthy and culturally appropriate food. TheCommunity Food Education (CFE)at Solid Ground fosters community connections through gardening education, sustainable food production, environmental stewardship, and raising awareness about good nutrition and food justice. We also fight hunger by providing low-income individuals with seeds and materials, and supporting backyard gardeners in donating fruits and vegetables grown in King County.
