Asheville's Feast now a Bontiful Cities Program

As of January 1, 2018, FEAST Asheville will become a program of Bountiful Cities, an Asheville non-profit organization dedicated to teaching sustainable agriculture skills in urban environments. This union is a perfect match, and will allow FEAST to considerably expand their reach and mission of empowering youth and families to grow, prepare and eat fruits and vegetables.
