New Leaf Foods has been selected to receive a 2020 Cellcom Green Gift in the amount of $3,000 to support the New Leaf Garden Blitz.
“COVID-19 magnified the significant food insecurity facing communities of color across our nation. Black households experienced the highest racial rate of food insecurity before the pandemic hit according to the Department of Agriculture and the situation has since worsened. In response to this crisis, we are urging people to grow as much food as they possibly can and our 2021 Garden Blitz will work to support people of color by providing access to fresh food, reducing reliance on the industrial food system, and making it easier for people to stay in our community,” said Kim Diaz, vice president of New Leaf Foods.
