09/14: cityCURRENT Non-Profit Lunch & Learn Tour: The Nashville Food Project

In-Person Nashville Non-Profit Lunch & Learn Tour

Join us for our nonprofit lunch & learn tour of The Nashville Food Project on Thursday, September 14 from 11:30am – 12:30pm sponsored by Immix Law.  Learn about the community gardens, food recovery, community meals, and much more!

The Nashville Food Project was born from the idea that ALL people should have access to the food they want and need. We know that one in seven people in Nashville lacks access to enough food to sustain a healthy lifestyle. But we also know that more than 40% of all the food in our city goes to waste. Solutions to hunger take much more than simple handouts. Poverty, unemployment, low wages and escalating housing costs all contribute to the challenges that the most vulnerable residents of our city face.

We believe food can be a powerful tool to foster health, belonging and justice in our community. That’s why we…

Grow — In our gardens, we grow organic food intensively, and share resources with others interested in growing their own food.
Cook — In our kitchens, we use recovered, donated and garden-grown food to prepare and cook made-from-scratch meals.
Share — In our community, we share nourishing meals in partnership with local poverty-disrupting nonprofits and community groups.

Lunch will be provided by The Nashville Food Project
