$25,000 Gift of Support from Food City
BRDC received $25,000 from Food City.
We were very excited to receive $25,000 from Food City at their grand opening for the brand new Independence location last night! This generous support will build out our commercial kitchen to feed the participants coming through our programs. Our vision for food service is not all that different than the original 1924 Konnarock Training School kitchen. We aim to reconnect the kids to the local sources of food and supplement the menu with regional specialties, including partnering with our local neighbors and the Konnarock Community Center to provide apple butter, blueberries, maple syrup, fresh fruits and vegetables, sustainably harvested ramps, wild mushrooms, branch lettuce, and much more! Thank you Food City for making this vision a reality!
