Field to Families - Sprouting a harvest of nutrition.

ACT NOW TO END HUNGER IN YOUR COMMUNITY

Donate to Fields to Families


Did you know? South Carolina has the second highest percentage of hungry people in the nation! Fields to Families was established to help address this issue. Our focus isn't on canned and packaged goods. Our focus is on improving the nutrition of hungry citizens in our area by coordinating the distribution of fresh, healthful produce – fruits and vegetables.

Fields to Families works to ease hunger in the Lowcountry by gathering nutritious crops from generous farmers and community gardeners. We then distribute the harvest to agencies such as Meals on Wheels, local food pantries, soup kitchens, shelters and churches. In turn, these recipient agencies donate this food to the individuals they serve.

Even though fruits and vegetables are considered the foundation of a healthy diet, the hungry and needy almost never eat fresh produce. That’s because they are provided with mostly canned and packaged food from emergency food programs. Fields to Families is addressing South Carolina's hunger problem in the most healthy way.
