MOVE CITY
GREENS WE NEED YOU SUPPORT! City Greens Market has received a
$30,000 "matching' grant from the Brown Sisters Foundation to be able to Move
City Greens into its own space in the community. To receive full benefit of
this grant we need to raise matching funds. PLEASE HELP US serve our
neighbors by making healthy food accessible. GIVE WHAT YOU CAN to
provide food in "food deserts" where no healthy food is available. Our own
space will help us reach more of the community by being open more often and for
longer hours.
For a donation of
$150 you will be listed as a "Green
Shopper"
$250 your listing will be as a "City Greener"
$500 or more
will make you an official "Green Grocer"
But, any donation will be
matched by the Brown Sisters Foundation grant. We hope to be able to move in
late spring. We count on our friends and supporters to make Midtown's mission
of service a success and City Greens Market is another way you can help
us-
WE CANNOT DO IT BY OURSELVES!

MISSION
The mission
of City Greens is to provide access to fresh, quality and affordable produce to
neighbors, to promote healthy living in the community, and to provide space for
members to interact. We recognize the importance of knowing where our food
comes from and supporting local farmers as part of our extended community.
VISION |
|
|
At City Greens we
believe nutritious food is an essential component of a happy and healthy life.
Food is our body's fuel. Our community should have access to healthy, fresh,
and affordable choices to fuel our bodies and minds. People unite around
food--sharing meals and memories with family, friends and neighbors. At City
Greens our community is uniting to make sure each of us has the opportunity to
enjoy fresh fruits and vegetables - from the good earth to our family's tables.
City Greens, a community market, is a collaboration between Midtown and
local Missouri farmers started in 2009. It is run by the Midtown staff and many
volunteers. |
