Garden Education & Outreach Coordinator - The Foodbank

The Foodbank believes that access to nutritious food is a basic human right and no one should go hungry. In FY 2024, we distributed over 18 million pounds of food through our network of partner agencies and other Foodbank programs. The Foodbank is a high-performing results-driven team that serves our community while having fun! Our urban garden boasts 40 raised beds, nutritious growing containers, multiple pollinator gardens, and on-site in-vessel composting facility to support our growing efforts and supplement our inventory with fresh, local produce. In the fall of 2021, The Foodbank opened a 6,000 square foot hydroponic greenhouse that is capable of producing 80,000 plants and expands our growing season to year-round. In 2025, construction will begin for a new community center at The Foodbank which will allow us to provide wrap-around services while also creating a new meeting space for local community members to use as we continue in our efforts to eliminate hunger and its root causes.
