Facbook Building a Grocery Store in a Food Desert

Imagine you are a child/ Elder that have to walk miles to purchase fresh milk , or get on the bus to ride to buy produce all the time  . Then have to walk blocks away with your grocery .Put yourself in a world where stores only sell products that make you very unhealthy. No fresh salads, no fresh juice; you would only find potato chips and soda in the aisles of your local grocery store.

The money  you donate will help our , startup company and we are seeking help to start a grocery store in an area that is a food desert

We are looking for funding or the raw materials to build an: 

- Outdoor Standardized Processing Station to safely wash and package vegetables 

- Money for an Equitable Wage for Student Stipends and a Community Member for Summer Program

- Off-Grid Solar Refrigeration Unit Solar Panels, Converter Box, Batteries

- Shipping Container

- Materials to start our CSA and distribution to local corner stores (boxes, rubber bands, bags)

- Pedal Power! Bicycles with trailers to haul vegetables and tools between the spaces on campus + a Pedi-cab to bring visitors from the entrance gates and parking lots to the farm.

We appreciate monetary donations and are also open to in-kind donations.


The people are in place, the ideas are clearly formed and, with your help, we can increase our food production and distribution by adding fundamental infrastructure. With this we can increase our impact on how many people are eating fresh organic produce
