The Community Food Connection

Interfaith Neighbors is currently raising funds to support our sister project The Community Food Connection. The CFC bridges the gap between Farm Fresh Organic Produce and the Food Pantries that often lack these vital foods. Partnering with Fernbrook Farm in Chesterfield NJ every day seasonal organic produce is delivered to Asbury Park and divided among the food pantries in our area including Asbury, Bradley Beach and Long Branch, forging a direct connection between Farmers and Food Pantries. Funds are being raised to continue and grow this pilot program that makes so much sense!

CFC director Karyn Moskowitz and Farmer Ted pose in front of last week's delivery of Collard Greens, Beets, Zucchini, Green Beans, Cucumbers, Salad Mix and Swiss Chard. Ted is so happy to provide produce for those that need it most!

The Community Food Connection partners with 12 food pantries in the area bringing each a share of produce to distribute. Here are some collard greens ready to distribute.

July Happenings on the FARM

WE LOVE KYDS! We had a wonderful time hosting KYDS camp in the garden. Their focus on mindfulness and holistic practices is always welcome in our space and we appreciate they see the value in connecting with nature and the outdoors.

We had an excellent time hosting Neptune Middle school's Global Agriculture camp. The students and the staff were all amazing to work with as we toured the gardens and explored and discussed the origins of where our food comes from, historically, locally and globally.

Advocates for Children of NJ held a mixer at the farm last Tuesday. We had a wonderful time meeting their kind and generous staff. If you are looking for a homey garden venue to host an event, consider us!

Growing Food for Free Distribution

This time of year, we donate well over 60 percent of what we grow to local residents and the Bethel AME food Pantry. We are proud to grow on once unused patches of land and distribute the produce for free. If you like what we do, please make a donation to support our project!

Donate to Kula!

The Farm without Borders at the end of June

Tuesday Volunteer Day!

This is how we build gardens...with MULCH and people power. We use no heavy machinery (we leave that to Devon who mows the farms edges -Thank you Devon!). Through sheet mulching and hand weeding and watering we get the job done. When you come to volunteer day you learn by working in our space how we chose to garden with nature and with the Earth's best interest in mind.

....and some pictures of the land, food and people....

THANK YOU FOR COMPOSTING!!!

We are so pleased that so many residents use our community compost pile and care about recycling their kitchen scraps. Please drop compost where you see the sign that reads "Drop Compost Here" as it moves around when we turn the piles which we do weekly. Please do not compost "compostable" items such as green bags, cutlery, cups and even paper products. These items do not break down in our pile or at the same rate that other organic materials do. We are currently in need of "browns" if you have any old bales of straw of bagged dry leaves, we will take them!
