In 2012 Seattle P-Patch Market Gardens provided produce for approximately 39 households over 20 weeks. It currently has two community supported agriculture (CSA) gardens located in and worked by residents Southeast and Southwest Seattle. Each garden also sells produce on site at a weekly farm stand. Seattle P-Patch Market Gardens' mission is to help establish safe, healthy communities and economic opportunity through development of CSA and Farm Stand enterprises in low-income neighborhoods. We also work with West Seattle Food Bank and the Healthy Kids Healthy Communities Program to address local food security issues. 65655 0 65655 There are eighty-one community gardens distributed throughout the City of Seattle. P-Patch Community Gardens spring from the desire of neighborhoods to make connections and improve their surroundings through stewardship. All P-Patch Community Gardens are open to the public to enjoy and are used as restorative spaces, learning/idea incubators, and places to gather and visit. The gardens also provide a way to give back to the community: gardeners contributed over 28,000 hours in 2012 (equivalent to 13 full time workers) and show their concern for the value of organic vegetables and community by supplying fresh produce to Seattle food banks and feeding programs. In 2012 alone, P-Patch gardeners donated 26,248 pounds of fresh produce to food banks and feeding programs. P-Patch Trust provides liability insurance and garden tools to community gardens. P-Patch Trust also pays for garden plot usage fees for low income gardeners who may otherwise be unable to benefit from gardening opportunities. P-Patch Trust's education mission is carried out through publication of the P-Patch Post, a quarterly newsletter that provides seasonal gardening tips, recipes and stories about inspirational gardeners. Financial assistance is provided to Lettuce Link (a Solid Ground program) to distribute tons of fresh produce from more than sixty community gardens to area food banks and feeding programs every year. P-Patch Trust is a member of Food Resource Network Federation. The Food Resource Network Federation was formed by area food providers seeking to move beyond the band-aid response to people trying to meet their food needs. 0 0 0 190803 1 1 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 6 0 1 2 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 X 12 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 0 0 1 1 1 0 WA X Michael McNutt 2067863137 365 Lynn Street Seattle WA 98109 X Karen Abbey 1 X 0 0 0 Laura Dewell 1 X 0 0 0 Melinda Briana Epler 1 X 0 0 0 Mark Huston 1 X 0 0 0 Ray Schutte 1 X 0 0 0 Milton Tam 1 X 0 0 0 Eric Toderudd 1 X 0 0 0 Diana Vergis Vinh 1 X 0 0 0 Joyce Moty 4 X 0 0 0 Alice Burgess 4 X 0 0 0 Michael McNutt 4 X 0 0 0 Brenda Matter 4 X 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 9151 0 7003 0 67024 87527 0 170705 Fiscal Sponsor Fees 900099 5532 5532 0 0 CSA Subscriptions 900099 17300 17300 0 0 0 0 0 0 22832 363 363 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 28663 7003 18275 10388 0 10388 0 0 0 0 0 204288 23195 0 10388 61507 30047 27883 3577 4889 3667 733 489 5063 2315 2474 274 28818 28818 34712 34712 13718 9587 3725 406 6203 227 5976 780 780 39 39 7516 7516 148 148 Low Income Gardener Support/Lettuce Link 2100 2100 0 0 Supplies & Garden Maintenance 58204 58204 0 0 CSA Farmer Stipend 13062 13062 0 0 Property Taxes 7097 7097 0 0 243856 190803 48307 4746 592 351 216137 221033 20247 22255 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 500 0 1136143 13152 1130506 1122991 1367982 1366630 11264 23861 0 0 71572 97191 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 82836 121052 X 154639 122587 1130507 1122991 0 0 1285146 1245578 1367982 1366630 -39568 0 X 0 0 0 X 151553 140963 289231 351820 170668 1104235 151553 140963 289231 351820 170668 1104235 1104235 2717 6253 2225 757 363 12315 18937 18591 28811 46875 22832 136046 1252596 0.88156 0.89021 X Other income is composed of program income from fiscal sponsor fees and subscriptions from the Community Supported Agriculture program (Seattle Market Gardens) RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED X X 6 0 0 0 0 1 1 24 0 1 0 685197 685197 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 450946 13152 437794 1122991 SchD_P02_S00_L05 Schedule D, Part II, Line 5 A memorandum of understanding entrusts the normal daily operations and maintenance of the community gardens to the City of Seattle's P-Patch Program.
