Your Gift Grows Food With a Purpose
Every dollar you give helps bridge the food insecurity gap in Campbell County. Whether you provide a weekend food bag for a child, fresh vegetables for a family, or support for our growing nonprofit farm, your generosity makes this work possible.
Thank you for nourishing our neighbors and investing in a food-secure future for our community.
"When I was first approached about joining the board for Edible Prairie Project, I had no doubt this was going to be a fantastic organization. Over the past six years, we have made a tremendous impact through our programs in bringing fresh, local food to families who need it most."
- Lexi Ostlund, Founding Board Chair
