Food Well Alliance Inc

Everyone deserves access to locally grown food - the healthiest food we can put in our bodies. Food Well Alliance counts on donors like you to achieve our mission to provide resources and support to local growers so more people can access healthy produce grown right here in metro Atlanta. This year, every dollar you donate is DOUBLED thanks to matching gifts by the Food Well Alliance Board and Tito's Handmade Vodka - up to $25,000.

Sister Terri Ali and Sister Tazar Gissentanner (above) oversee the Firdous Community Farm at Mohammed Schools of Atlanta. Together they teach students how to grow and harvest produce used for their Farm to Cafeteria program. A $25,000 Farm Forward Grant from Food Well has allowed them to extend their harvest through various food preservation methods of canning, freezing, drying, and preserving. “This grant has pushed us over the top, adding to our technology and labor support and teaching valuable lessons on food preservation,” said Sister Terri.
