Share the bounty of the peak harvest season by contributing to the Fresh Start Food Donation Fund! With your support we provide fresh, local vegetables to low-income individuals in our community. We need your help to make sure the abundance of Fresh Start veggies get to those who need it in Manchester, Concord, and Nashua.
You will be contributing to the success of the Fresh Start Farmer’s businesses while also supporting the well-being of your neighbors in need. Together we can build a community that is fair, inclusive, and provides for everyone.
Due to Labor Day, you will receive your customization email for next week’s share this Friday 9/3. You will have until the normal time (Tuesday at 2pm) to make swaps and add to your order. Delivery/pick-up times are on the normal schedule.
Next week you may see a substitution for a veggie in your order and will receive notification if this is the case. We appreciate your flexibility so that staff and farmers can take some time to observe the holiday.
Tomatoes are in full swing! The season is short, so be sure to stock up for canning, sauce or salsa making. We have flats of canning tomatoes as well as kits for salsa and sauce to make it quick and easy for you.
