🌟 Kylie’s Nonprofit Spotlight 🌟

Today’s feature is The Food Dignity Movement , an organization dedicated to investing in our local farmers and connecting their fresh, healthy food to local people. 🌱🍅

Their mission goes beyond food — they work to eliminate barriers to access and build a resilient local food system that supports health equity for everyone. By strengthening the link between farmers and community members, Food Dignity is helping ensure that nutritious, locally grown food is a right, not a privilege.
Because dignity starts at the table. 💛
