Food for Others Community Garden Groundbreaking
Fairfax, VA – On Thursday, June 22nd, at Peace Lutheran Church in Alexandria, Food for Others planted their first garden where they will be growing the produce requested by clients. All produce grown in this garden will go to families in need in Northern Virginia. This exciting project would not have been possible without the support of Meadows Farms, Garden Club of Fairfax, and Friends of Occoquan.
Free Summer Meals for Kids Program
Approximately 20 percent of Fairfax County students receive free and reduced price meals during the school year. When the school year ends, so does the opportunity for consistent, nutritious meals for many of these students. The Free Summer Meals for Kids Program fills that need by providing nutritious meals to children ages 5 to 18 during the summer. Fairfax County Public Schools is barbecuing daily at seventeen locations across the county from June 26th through August 25th, 2017. For more information, click here.
