We are calling you! Have you thought about what skipping just 1 latte a month could do for Farm Discovery and our community? ⠀ ⠀ Monthly donations add up and they go further because they cut costs. ⠀ ⠀ So, consider it. Give a latte a month so that a class of first graders can have a farm fresh snack during their field trip. ⠀ (link in bio)⠀ ⠀ #skipa #skipalatte #costofalatte #monthlygiving #recurringgift #millennialgiving #millennial #okboomer http://bit.ly/37w9WIY

Food What!? and Farm Discovery are so closely aligned in our vision for the community that we find ourselves sharing spaces, goals and once in a while, pie. In the past, we have supplied produce to @foodwhatfarm farm stands at school sites. ⠀ ⠀ Now, in partnership with @salud_para_la_gente and @lakesideorganicgardens those farm stands will be right outside clinics to support patients as they build strong habits around accessing healthy food, integrate this food into their family’s diets, and create a community space at the intersection of youth power and community health.⠀ ⠀ #santacruzgives #santacruzgivesforyouth #scgivesforcommunity #santacruzgivesforsouthcounty⠀ @pajaronian @cfsantacruzco http://bit.ly/39l6t1f

Part of the stability @pvshelter strives towards with their clients, is the emotional stability that is hard to come by when resources like shelter and food are in question. Pajaro Valley Shelter Services is successful at helping 70% of client families move into stable housing and 100% of youth and families in Farm Discovery's programs learn the skills to grow and prepare healthy food. Together we make great strides towards health and stability in our community.⠀ ⠀ #santacruzgivesforyouth #santacruzgivesforhealth #santacruzgivesforsouthcounty #santacruzgivesforfamilies⠀ @pajaronian @goodtimessc @volunteercentersc @cfsantacruzco http://bit.ly/39hYEJK

We think @watsonvillewetlands is a great organization. They preserve, restore, and foster the appreciation of the wetlands of the Pajaro Valley and through their #santacruzgives campaign they are planting trees. Expanding Watsonville's urban canopy will support residents, wildlife, and water quality in the freshwater wetlands that underlie the city. This is the regeneration of our community's ecosystem Farm Discovery can get behind.⠀ ⠀ #santacruzgivesforyouth #scgivesfortheenvironment⠀ @pajaronian @goodtimessc @volunteercentersc @cfsantacruzco http://bit.ly/34TnL24

@NourishingGenerations, like Farm Discovery, support local youth to achieve health through education and hands-on experience with nutrition. Please support us in improving health in our community through food growing and cooking skills.⠀ #santacruzgivesforheatlh #santacruzgivesforyouth #santacruzgives ⠀ @pajaronian @goodtimessc @volunteercentersc @cfsantacruzco http://bit.ly/2sbO32p
