Cultivate serves as a middleman between large food service businesses which prepare food that is not served and people who are food insecure in our community. Our twist on the 2nd Helpings model is that we distribute the already prepared food in two ways: individual frozen meals (like a frozen Meals on Wheels) and in bulk to local social service agencies who feed the food insecure. We are able to provide as one client calls it, real food, in a convenient easy to store and prepare package that is more nutritious then canned and boxed items. We not only feed hungry people but help protect our environment from unnecessary food waste which is the largest single component of our Nation's landfills. 71016 0 158603 Our culinary job training program is an 8 week course focused on helping people with barriers to employment find jobs in the food service industry. In 2018, we provided culinary job training for Goodwill and the Salvation Army's Kroc Center. 2937 0 0 Cultivate is filling the 68-hour, weekend gap that a child may go without food.
