Our friends at Concrete Jungle are hosting their largest pick of the season on Saturday, June 24th! They’re headed down to Sylvester, GA to pick 2 acres of corn (which can yield up to 30,000 pounds of corn) to be donated to soup kitchens and food pantries. After the pick, they’ll head up to Lake Blackshear to take a dip in the lake and enjoy the Watermelon Days festival!

The creation of Food Well Alliance was made possible through funding from the founding benefactor, the James M. Cox Foundation, and through the vision of Jim Kennedy, chair of Cox Enterprises, and Bill Bolling, founder of the Atlanta Community Food Bank. Together, they saw an opportunity to build healthier communities across metro Atlanta by supporting and connecting members of our local food movement. Today, we support more than 300 community gardens, urban farms and orchards in the Atlanta region.
