Did You Know?

 

City of Good purchases our produce for distribution directly from farmers!

Sustainability is at the heart of City of Good's mission and that includes a sustainable economy. We make sure all farmers are compensated for their produce so they can continue to grow fresh, local food for our community!

Your donations help make this possible - THANK YOU.
