The mission of the FEAST is to empower youth and families to grow, prepare and enjoy fruits and vegetables through hands-on cooking and garden education. We partner with local schools and organizations to deliver standards-aligned lessons and maintenance support for educational gardens in Asheville's public schools. FEAST is offered at 14 locations delivering in-school, after school and summer curriculum. The school gardens that we manage serve as community food hubs, and their continued improved functioning and community involvement will positively impact countless residents of the surrounding neighborhoods of each garden. Throughout the school year, we evaluate the effectiveness of our lessons and meet with school administration to check in about programmatic needs and updates. At the end of the school year, we evaluate the program as a whole and gather feedback from teachers, families, and school administration. Community Garden Network: This program of Bountiful Cities supports around 38 community gardens in Asheville/Buncombe County. Bountiful Cities facilitates information and resource sharing, gardening education, workshops, and monthly Meetups and Newsletter. The CGN also houses a seed and tool library, participates in shared fundraising and volunteer recruitments, and connects area gardeners with support systems. The monthly workshops and Newsletter have been relevant to continue to connect neighborhoods to the larger community of support and education. Bountiful Cities also works on many collaborative programs supporting the creation of local healthy community food systems. Our organization has served as lead agency for multiple projects and continues to be a relevant partner with these organizations as they become sufficient. In 2021 Bountiful Cities staff served in leadership roles with the fledging Western North Carolina Food Justice Planning Initiative (WNCFJPI). In these leadership roles the WNCFJIP received several grants that allowed the 6 strategy areas to hire support staff to increase organizational capacity. The WNCFJIP includes 22 counties in Western North Carolina with over 22 agencies, non-profits, funders and community members. The purpose is to have thriving regenerative, resilient local food systems centering food justice for all in WNC. 361666 true true false false false false false false false false true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false true 12 0 20 true false false false false false false false false false false X 7 7 false false false false false false false true true false false true true true true true true false false false NC X Darcel Eddins 8282574000 50 South French Broad Avenue Suite Asheville NC 28801 Darcel Eddins Executive Director 50.00 X 22360 0 0 C Nicole Hinebaugh Staff Liaison 40.00 X 34386 0 0 Ameena Batada Chairperson 5.00 X X 0 0 0 Amy Lanou PhD Secretary 5.00 X X 0 0 0 Brandee Boggs Treasurer 5.00 X X 0 0 0 Lauren Rayburn Board Member 5.00 X 0 0 0 Jessie Dean Board Member 5.00 X 0 0 0 Sekou Coleman Board Member 5.00 X 13220 0 0 Gene Ettison Board Member 5.00 X 0 0 0 69966 0 0 false false false 141643 277020 418663 Professional Services Revenue 541490 18271 0 0 Events and Workshops 611710 15123 0 0 33394 227 0 227 452284 33394 0 227 7500 7500 22360 17888 2236 2236 177852 142282 17785 17785 17637 14109 1764 1764 4614 0 4614 0 850 850 0 0 457 0 457 0 3957 1559 2203 195 148 118 15 15 13656 12290 1366 0 84 76 8 0 6519 4913 1606 0 Program Expenses 158788 158788 0 0 Staff Development 2217 1293 924 0 Professional License/Membership 203 0 203 0 416842 361666 33181 21995 299552 275665 612800 612800 612800 912352 888465 16399 6145 49075 65474 6145 X 801953 750820 44925 131500 846878 882320 912352 888465 35442 X X true X false true false X 0 233153 622658 313627 329119 418663 1917220 0 0 233153 622658 313627 329119 418663 1917220 700714 1216506 44 106 139 227 516 0 8333 8333 1926069 345095 0.63160 0.57060 X 0 0 0 Pt II Ln 10 Other Income Part II, Line 10 Description: Other Income 2017: 8333.
