Type and Scope of services to be performed:
Commún has three food programs: community food share, gardens, and trainings and power building. They are in the middle of a three-year process to transition multiple community food banks to combine into a community led food hub designed and directed by residents who experience food insecurity. Their garden program is led by a community leader and expert and supports 23 gardeners and their families in accessing land, securing seeds and seedlings, and maintaining their gardens. All of the food grown goes directly to the gardeners' families and neighbors. Healthy Food for Denver’s Kids funding increases access to healthy food for Denver's kids by providing food, local urban gardening opportunities, and training in conjunction with a collective process to address the whole person and the root causes of hunger. This funding allows small food shares in Southwest Denver to work with people experiencing food insecurity to co-design a long-term food system for the community that achieves food sovereignty.
