An initiative dedicated to weaving communities together via love for good, local food (with all its roots!) and knowledge/skill sharing.
We host Community Market Days in Rochester to share these values and do good work in our community To us, being Blessed is knowing where your food came from and feeling some sort of connection to it. We're aiming to connect local producers and makers with the families of Greater Rochester by providing ease of access and kitchen inspiration. This will strengthen our communities by increasing wellness in body, mind, and spirit.

A lot of people feel forgotten. As we sort through these clothes and prepare to donate them, we think of those who will get to enjoy them thanks to the kindness of those who care enough to give. This is just half of what we have to bring to the Open Door Mission this week. Babies and kid’s items were in particularly high demand last time we went, so we were able to secure alot more of those items this time. Thank you 💚

And they’re off! Two bundles of clothing — one kids, one adults. All varying sizes, and mostly summer wear. These are heading to Mary’s Place in Rochester, an organization serving refugees. ❤️
Hand-selected for quality and variety that we hope will go to good use
Here is what they’re in need of if you’re curious:
Diapers
Household Items
Personal Hygiene
Clothing
Thanks to everyone who donated to our clothing swap. We received 6 bundles of clothing, and 5 people took things home. Every time we host a swap we get lots of stuff to donate — it’s always a win-win.
More clothing going out soon! Stay tuned to hear how we distribute it.
