Sponsor Four Weeks of Grab & Go Organic Veggie Boxes
With health and well-being for local families as one of our top priorities, United Way of Charlotte County is thrilled to collaborate once again with owners of Worden Farm, husband and wife duo Chris and Eva Worden in providing Grab & Go Organic Veggie Boxes directly from the farm to food insecure families.
For a donation of $100 you can sponsor four local harvest boxes of assorted organic vegetables to be delivered to area nonprofits. Each donation will provide a half bushel of seasonal produce every week for four weeks throughout the month of November to clients of Kids Thrive and Charlotte County Reads. Your sponsorship will get fresh veggies in the hands, and mouths, of food insecure families.
Donations for the Worden Farm Grab & Go Organic Veggie Boxes can be made at this link.
Box Basics:
- $100 donation = $25/week for 4 weeks in the month of November.
- Kids Thrive and Charlotte County Reads families will receive a weekly Grab & Go Organic Veggie Box, packed with a balanced assortment of the best seasonal organic veggies, including salad greens, cooking greens, root crops, fruiting vegetables and culinary herbs.
- The harvests vary -- an example box might contain: a head of lettuce, a bunch of carrots, a quart of tomatoes, a bunch of kale, a quart of squash, a bunch of scallions, a quart of green beans, and a bunch of basil.
- Box size is a half bushel, about 14 x 11 x 7 inches.
Thank you for your generosity and kindness in support of growing a healthy community.
