Grow Jackson exists to eliminate food insecurity with a focus on increasing access to, and education around, fresh fruits and vegetables. While we believe ending hunger is essential, we know that doing so while ignoring a healthy diet leads to less successful health outcomes. We work to supplement existing food distribution infrastructures with more fresh food and healthy options to offer those who need food assistance, and to shrink food deserts in Jackson. Our goal is to help those navigating food insecurity eat more nutritious foods, and learn more about how to eat these foods, why they are beneficial, and how to access them in our community.
