Thanks to generous community supporters like you, the Healthy Food, Healthy Families Program was able to complete another successful year in providing fresh fruits and vegetables to the 4,800 clients of the Community Services Agency located in Mountain View. The Community Services Agency serves low-income residents of Los Altos, Los Altos Hills and Mountain View and 50% of the programs' participants are children and adolescents under the age of 17 or seniors over the age of 65.
This year, Hidden Villa was able to provide 34,716 servings of these fresh fruits and vegetables to the CSA who serves over a ton of food (literally!) each day to it's members, five days a week.
“It's good that we can give our clients something really special to bring home with them. Sometimes we run low with fresh vegetables and Hidden Villa helps us a lot to provide that for our clients.” -LaDrea Clark, Food & Nutrition Assistant at the CSA of Mountain View
Funding Healthy Food, Healthy Families enables Hidden Villa to grow high quality, fresh organic produce for distribution at the CSA of Mountain View’s Food and Nutrition Center, which is delivered twice weekly throughout the growing season of May to November each year.
Thanks to you, we are able to make fresh food a reality for so many folks in our community.
