🌹 DID YOU KNOW?
Out of 86,000 farmers in Iowa, only 59 are Black (via Iowa Food System Coalition). That’s rare air, and why moments like the Annual Farm to Fork Dinner, hosted by our friends at the UNI Local Food Program, are so powerful.

What’s even more powerful? We Arose connects you to Black farmers that are growing healthy food FOR YOU right here in your local community.

With one purchase, a Greens Together CSA produce pack membership connects you with fresh vegetables each week and directly supports multiple Black, small-scale farm businesses.

🥬✨ Spots are limited, so secure your Greens Together membership today at www.wearose.co/shop
