Overview

New Seasons Market Community Program At New Seasons Market, we support community organizations addressing the underlying disparities and root causes that lead to food insecurity. We understand that race is a consistent indicator of disparity in our areas of focus, and we ask organizations applying for our community programs to tell us how racial equity influences their programming. We also recognize that advocacy, food systems change, and meeting immediate food needs are integral to increasing food security, which is why we aim to support organizations working in our three focus areas: Food Access: Meeting the immediate needs of food insecurity by offering nourishing and culturally specific foods Environmental Action and Justice: Prioritizing the maintenance and renewal of our environment in support of a healthy regional food network Neighborhood Education: Prioritizing learning experiences for communities on the growth, nourishment, and preparation of food to increase health and well-being Please note that if you don’t receive notification that you’ve been selected for a program, you can always re-apply for the next round—and we highly encourage you to do so!
