| FORM 990, PART III, LINE 4A: | THE NASHVILLE FOOD PROJECT BUILDS COMMUNITY FOOD INFRASTRUCTURE TO INCREASE EQUITABLE ACCESS TO NOURISHING FOOD ACROSS NASHVILLE. RATHER THAN OPERATING AS A TRADITIONAL EMERGENCY FOOD PROVIDER, TNFP CONNECTS AGRICULTURE, MEAL PRODUCTION, FOOD RECOVERY, HEALTHCARE PARTNERSHIPS, VOLUNTEERS, AND NEIGHBORHOOD ORGANIZATIONS INTO AN INTEGRATED SYSTEM THAT STRENGTHENS COMMUNITY FOOD SECURITY. FOOD ACCESS: THE FOOD ACCESS PROGRAM PREPARES, RECOVERS, AND DISTRIBUTES NOURISHING FOOD THROUGH A COORDINATED NETWORK OF NONPROFIT, HEALTHCARE, AND COMMUNITY PARTNERS. SCRATCH-MADE MEALS, RECOVERED FOOD, AND LOCALLY GROWN PRODUCE ARE SHARED WITH ORGANIZATIONS SERVING CHILDREN, OLDER ADULTS, INDIVIDUALS EXPERIENCING HOMELESSNESS, IMMIGRANT COMMUNITIES, AND FAMILIES EXPERIENCING FOOD INSECURITY. THROUGH INITIATIVES INCLUDING COMMUNITY MEALS, FOOD RECOVERY, PRODUCE RX, AND COMMUNITY MARKETS, TNFP STRENGTHENS EQUITABLE FOOD ACCESS WHILE REDUCING FOOD WASTE AND SUPPORTING COMMUNITY HEALTH. COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT: THE COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT PROGRAM BUILDS LONG-TERM COMMUNITY FOOD SECURITY BY EXPANDING ACCESS TO LAND, FOOD-GROWING KNOWLEDGE, VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITIES, AND CIVIC PARTICIPATION. THROUGH THE COMMUNITY AGRICULTURE NETWORK, EDUCATIONAL PROGRAMMING, LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT, AND VOLUNTEER ENGAGEMENT, RESIDENTS CULTIVATE FOOD, STRENGTHEN NEIGHBORHOOD RELATIONSHIPS, AND BUILD THE SKILLS AND PARTNERSHIPS NEEDED FOR A MORE RESILIENT AND EQUITABLE FOOD SYSTEM. SYSTEMS CHANGE & PARTNERSHIPS: TNFP CONVENES CROSS-SECTOR PARTNERSHIPS THAT STRENGTHEN NASHVILLE'S FOOD SYSTEM THROUGH COLLABORATION AMONG NONPROFIT ORGANIZATIONS, HEALTHCARE PROVIDERS, FARMERS, EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTIONS, BUSINESSES, AND GOVERNMENT AGENCIES. THESE PARTNERSHIPS ADVANCE FOOD RECOVERY, LOCAL AGRICULTURE, NUTRITION SECURITY, AND FOOD-AS-MEDICINE INITIATIVES WHILE IMPROVING COORDINATION ACROSS THE COMMUNITY FOOD SYSTEM. OUR COMMUNITY MEALS PROGRAM COOKS AND SHARES THOUSANDS OF MADE-FROM-SCRATCH, NUTRITIOUS MEALS AND SNACKS EACH WEEK IN COLLABORATION WITH ANTI-POVERTY AND COMMUNITY BUILDING ORGANIZATIONS IN OUR CITY. BY ALIGNING FOOD SUPPORT WITH THESE VITAL PROGRAMS AND SERVICES -- SUCH AS JOB TRAINING, AFTER SCHOOL PROGRAMS, ESL CLASSES, SENIOR SERVICES, DOMESTIC VIOLENCE SHELTER, AND GED PREP, AMONG OTHERS -- WE ARE ABLE TO ENHANCE THE IMPACT OF PARTNERS' WORK WHILE SIMULTANEOUSLY PROVIDING ACCESS TO THE BASIC NEED OF NUTRITIOUS FOOD. OUR MEALS PROGRAM IS SIGNIFICANTLY SUPPORTED BY TNFP'S FOOD RECOVERY EFFORTS, THROUGH WHICH WE COLLECT EXCESS PRODUCE AND OTHER PERISHABLE FOODS FROM LOCAL FARMS, GROCERY STORES, AND RESTAURANTS. WE WORK DIRECTLY WITH LOCAL FOOD VENDORS TO RECOVER THE EXCESS FOODS THEY CANNOT SELL, PROVIDING HUNDREDS OF POUNDS OF FRESH INGREDIENTS FOR OUR MEALS, WHILE GREATLY REDUCING THE AMOUNT OF FOOD WASTED IN OUR COMMUNITY. OUR URBAN AGRICULTURE PROGRAM INCLUDES VIBRANT PRODUCTION, COMMUNITY AND MARKET GARDEN PROGRAMMING. IN PRODUCTION GARDENS, VOLUNTEERS SUPPORT ALL ASPECTS OF GROWING ORGANIC PRODUCE FOR OUR KITCHENS, INCLUDING TURNING THE GROUND, PLANTING SEEDS, WEEDING AND HARVESTING FRESH PRODUCE. IN THREE COMMUNITY GARDENS, WE PROVIDE A SPACE FOR PARTICIPANTS TO GROW FOOD FOR THEMSELVES AND THEIR FAMILIES, SHARING RESOURCES OF LANDS, TOOLS, AND GARDEN TRAINING. AND THROUGH AN INNOVATIVE MARKET GARDEN PROGRAM, GROWING TOGETHER, WE SUPPORT NEW AMERICANS FROM FARMING BACKGROUNDS IN GROWING PRODUCE TO SELL FOR PERSONAL INCOME AND BUILDING COMMUNITY FOOD SECURITY ALONG THE WAY. BEYOND THE VALUE OF THEIR EARNINGS, FARMERS ARE ABLE TO RECONNECT WITH THE PRACTICE OF GROWING FOOD, EQUIPPING PARTICIPANTS WITH ADDITIONAL TOOLS TO IMPROVE THEIR WELL-BEING THROUGH MEANINGFUL WORK. |
