Hello Bryan,   


I’m reaching out to you from Fresh Food Connect. We’re a Denver-based national nonprofit on a mission to grow a more local and resilient food system by connecting gardeners with their communities. Home gardeners with extra produce use our free mobile app to coordinate and track donations of homegrown produce to local hunger relief organizations. 


With gardening season in full bloom, we've put together our Tomato Handbook! Please share in any upcoming newsletter or social media posts you can! To receive the handbook, gardeners just need to make a donation through the app.

Yours when you Share Your Bounty


Get Fresh Food Connect’s 24-page digital Tomato Handbook when you use the app to schedule your first donation! It’s packed with everything you need to know about planting, growing, and harvesting tomatoes, so you’ll have plenty to share! 


It’s yours free when you use the Fresh Food Connect app to donate produce this year. Get the app here to donate produce and support our hunger relief programs.



Ready to plan ahead? We’ve put together a few additional newsletter posts to keep gardeners giving for Hunger Relief all season long. We would greatly appreciate your including us in future newsletters as well!

Thank you in advance for your support of Denver’s hunger relief programs!

In community,

Carmen

Hello Carmen,

I did my best to share the information on:
- Reddit
- Nextdoor
- X.com

I'll plan to make another series of posts in October.
Hope it helps!

Cheers,
Bryan
