"Health and wellness is a top priority as we aim to address root causes of poverty and food insecurity. Thanks to the outpouring of community support, our urban farm includes nearly one acre of farmland with a variety of fruits and vegetables, an aquaponics system that produces tilapia and a robust composting program that turns kitchen scraps into valuable soil to grow more food.
We are excited to kickoff our first Cubex Sponsored Event (CSE) by partnering with St Mary's Food Bank Tuesday, October 2nd!
Did you know we have the world's first food bank right here in our own backyard? Founded in 1967, St Mary's became the flagship for food banks around the country and the world. St. Mary’s Food Bank serves to alleviate hunger through the gathering and distribution of food while encouraging self-sufficiency, collaboration, advocacy and education. St. Mary’s Food Bank is truly a community-based organization. Individual donors, corporate donors, and private grants help feed hungry individuals and families in our area. Serving two-thirds of Arizona’s 15 counties, they are committed to volunteerism, building community relationships and improving the quality of life for Arizonans in need.
