The First Harvest Club

In hundreds of neighborhoods across the country, many people who live near or in USDA-labeled food deserts now face a significant food epidemic.

The lack of nutritious, affordable, and high-quality foods, in many cases, is out of reach for many working-class, minority, and low-income communities. Studies have shown that this limited access results in reduced diets and, ultimately, life-threatening diseases.

• The First Harvest Club, a Community Supported Agriculture membership plan (CSA) provides members access to fresh vegetables and Chef prepared meals with the best healthy alternative right in the comfort of their own homes.

• Overseeing The First Harvest Club’s in-house commercial kitchen and bakery, our Executive Chefs work with talented teams of culinary experts that create healthy alternative meals, all freshly grown and prepared.
