Fostering a future where local farms feed local communities
Supporting Local Farms
Salvation Farms supports local farms by taking surplus produce and product off of farms, and distributing that surplus to local community meal programs. This is done at no cost to the farmers and aids in distributing resources.
Connecting Food Programs & Feeding Sites
By connecting farms and the surplus local vegetables, fruit, and even cheese, we help Vermonters feed Vermonters. Each meal site, food pantry, community food hub we distribute to is able to feed their visitors with local product.
Growing Local Food Systems
Operating off of the belief that farms have always been and will always be our salvation, we bridge the gaps in the food system through experiential learning, being a guide in the local food community, and connecting food producers with food eaters, which is all of us!
Why Our Work Matters
We believe that farms are, were, and always will be our salvation; diversified farms are the cornerstones of healthy, wholesome, and stable communities and cultures. We believe the best way to build lasting change in the food system is to involve people in the process of moving food from farms to eaters.
