The Maryland Hunger Map is helping us make an even greater impact on the loves of hungry Marylanders. We’re using the data to deliver more targeted solutions on a more localized level than ever before. Here’s how.
At the Maryland Food Bank, we know that better nutrition means better health. That’s why, with the help of farmers like Steve, we’re committed to delivering millions of pounds of fresh produce annually through our Farm to Food Bank Program.”Hunger does not discriminate, we want to see people having healthy options for their meals”-Steve of Mason’s Heritage Farms.
The underlying causes of hunger don’t magically disappear after high school, in fact, they can become even more challenging for college students.
From large scale farms to community and backyard gardens, farmers and gardeners off all types play a role in making Maryland healthier.
FoodWorks, the Maryland Food Bank’s 12-week culinary training program, offers a fresh start to individuals in Maryland. During the program, students develop job readiness skills, receive their ServSafe Manager Certification, and get workplace training — all while converting fresh produce into healthy meals for our hungry neighbors.
