Foodbank Farming Network

Now in its second year, the Foodbank Farm at Two Rivers Center in Montpelier grows produce on its fertile river-bottom land for distribution to Foodbank Network Partners.  This year, 46,000 pounds of vegetables will be offered to as many as 60 Vermont Foodbank Network Partners throughout the harvest season. The Foodbank Farm provides monthly distribution of locally grown, fresh produce, nutrition education workshops, and fresh food tastings to participating Network Partners.  Efforts are currently in process to expand this model into three additional geographic areas in the next three years.
