Clean Greens Fundraiser

An essential part of sustainably feeding our cities through reconnecting each other with food is being able to know the farmers who continue to with pioneering the reunion of sustainability and agriculture. (Perhaps you remember when we met with Erick Haakenson from Jubilee Farm a while back and discussed how we could grow a revolution?)


Well, we'd like to introduce you to our pals over at Clean Greens:

Clean Greens Farm and Market was established to supply fresh, wholesome produce to families in need in Seattle’s Central District and other communities. Some of these communities do not have access to healthy produce, and are located in what is known as food deserts. Most residents in these areas have a higher rate of poor diet related illnesses such as diabetes, high blood pressure and cholesterol. The number of obesity cases is also on the rise. Our market is committed to delivering quality produce to those families who otherwise would not have access to it.


Founded in 2007 by Rev. Robert L. Jeffrey, Sr., Clean Greens helps to educate our communities on healthy eating and food justice. We also offer affordable produce with our CSA (Community Supported Agriculture) program. Through this program, all residents are able to purchase fresh produce directly from a local farmer. Produce is often harvested the same day it is delivered. Also, through this program, we are able to build partnerships and forge meaningful relationships throughout our city and abroad.

In January, they are throwing what's going to be an awesome evening fundraiser and are bringing in Brahm Ahmadi, co-founder of People's Grocery in Oakland, California, an amazing organization that works to build a local food system that improves the health and economy of West Oakland.

If you're like us and are passionate about growing a revolution, you'll definitely want to join forces with Clean Greens as they welcome Brahm to Seattle to help raise money for an amazing farm that needs your support. 

See you then?
