Spring 2022The Super Local Food Project attempts to bridge the gap between local farmers and the people in Hampton Roads, Virginia. We accomplish this in many ways by selling seeds, produce, and making connections. We are excited to report our Markets for this upcoming season. We will be busy at Buckroe Beach Farmers Market in Hampton and City Center in Newport News. We are happy to announce we are eligible to accept SNAP benefits for the purchase of produce and seeds for growing food. As we continue our partnership with The Crop Foundation by accepting donations through Fresh Food Connect, your garden generosity will not only feed someone, your donation can be a part of the training curriculum to educate on benefits and the culinary arts that highlight LOCAL foods. Chef Kip Poole and The Crop Foundation is devoted to young students who study culinary, agriculture, and closely related fields. Our endeavor is to build a sustainable community of young students that are knowledgeable and confident in their career paths and will be lifelong learners of excellence in gastronomy. We are dedicated to helping students further their education by offering scholarships and identify internships with local and global chefs, farmers, restaurateurs, and other members of the culinary community. Our project goals are to expand attendance and graduation from youth programming from 480 students. With funding support from generous gardeners, Amazon Smile, Kroger Rewards, and citizens like YOU!
