Delta Fresh Foods Initiative
Delta Fresh Foods is committed to building local, community-driven policy change to strengthen the local economy and promote healthy lifestyles in the Mississippi Delta. We seek to improve food security and nutrition throughout the Delta.
We are in Bolivar County and partner with Cleveland Central School District and the North Bolivar Consolidated School District. We partner with five elementary schools and support other schools within these districts.
The Food Corps members serve in the North Bolivar Consolidated School District in Duncan and Mound Bayou. The members offer taste tests and hands-on lessons. Delta Fresh provides free field trips and school visits with our mobile kitchen. We are excited to build gardens and expand into Sunflower County in 2025!
