"We have food deserts in our cities. We know that the distance you live from a supplier of fresh produce is one of the best predictors of your health. And in the inner city, people don't have grocery stores."

About
The Feed the Block Campaign is a community-driven initiative to combat food insecurity in the Bronx. Our goal is to provide resources and support to those facing food deserts and other barriers to accessing healthy and affordable food in our community. Through raising awareness, sharing resources, and taking action, we aim to build a stronger and more equitable food system.
We believe that healthy food is a basic human right, and we invite individuals, organizations, and businesses to join us in our mission. Together, we can make a difference and ensure everyone in the Bronx has access to the nourishment they need to thrive.
