Supporting the Kingston YMCA Farm Project
The Kingston YMCA Farm Project teaches people of all ages how to plant, harvest, and cook fresh and healthy food. All the while, it pays teens a competitive wage for their work on the farm -- empowering youth and growing a healthier community.
This season, the diner and our guests raised $7,000 to support this worthy initiative, and we were amazed by everyone's giving spirit. The funds we raised will go towards building a learning kitchen and scholarships for teens in their cooking program.
We as a company look for ways to support our community in a meaningful way. This program brings together the three ideas that align with those goals:
- Support access to fresh food for those who need it
- Teach young people healthy eating habits
- Educate young folks on where their food comes from and inspire them to grow their own
