TAPESTRY FARMS GROWS HEALTHY, CULTURALLY AND DIET APPROPRIATE FOOD AT EIGHT GARDEN PLOTS IN FOOD DESERTS THROUGHOUT THE QUAD CITIES - SEVEN IN IOWA - AND DISTRIBUTES IT TO REFUGEE FAMILIES IN EMERGENCY SITUATIONS, TO LOCAL FOOD PANTRIES, AND AT OUR KARIBU MARKET, WHICH OFFERS CULTURALLY SPECIFIC FOOD FOR PEOPLE FROM EAST AND CENTRAL AFRICA AT NO COST. IN LATE 2023, WITH SUPPORT FROM THE DEERE FOUNDATION, WE WILL INSTALL A NEW STAND-ALONE HYDROPONICS UNIT THAT WILL ALLOW US TO SIGNIFICANTLY INCREASE THE AMOUNT OF FOOD WE GROW. THIS PROJECT PURCHASES A REFRIGERATED FOOD VAN TO TRANSPORT THE FOOD WE HARVEST BOTH FROM THE TRADITIONAL GARDENS AND THE HYDROPONICS PROJECT, ALLOWING US TO DELIVER MORE FOOD AT A MORE EFFICIENT PACE AND THEREBY IMPROVING ACCESS TO HEALTHY FOODS FOR MORE IOWA RESIDENTS WHO DO NOT CURRENTLY HAVE THE RESOURCES TO PURCHASE IT THEMSELVES.
