What does food insecurity actually mean? Food Bank ESOP Purchase Well, food insecurity is the situation where a person is not sure from where there next meal will come or, for that matter, whether $2.2 Million a meal will come at all. That person is considered “food insecure”. In-Kind Donation by Mr. and Mrs. In our 11-parish service area, we have identified that, after all of the federal feeding Albert Fraenkel II & Children programs and the 9.6 million meal equivalents that we distribute, a 20 million meal deficiency or gap exists for those that are food insecure. With your help, we have $5.45 Million been able to help reduce that meal gap, but we need your continued help to do more. Total Acquisition Value to Food Bank Food insecurity is much more that a basic needs issue. It has become a public health issue that affects us all.

  • Students in the Local Food Value Chain
    2017 NC Growing Together Summer Apprenticeship: Students in the Local Food Value Chain 2017 APPRENTICESHIP Taylor Hayes, Piedmont Food and Agriculture Processing Center, Hillsborough “I feel l like a sponge, I have learned so much!” is the first thing Taylor will tell you about her apprenticeship with Piedmont Food and Agricultural Processing Center (PFAP) in Hillsborough, NC. Taylor graduated from UNC- Chapel Hill last December with degrees in Southern Studies and Information Science. She has hands-on production experience, having worked in community gardens through high school and on farms all through college, and she currently works for Ran-Lew Dairy in Snow Camp, NC. Taylor was interested in the apprenticeship with PFAP as a way to learn about a side of local food supply chains that she had not yet experienced – the business and retail side. At PFAP’s shared commercial kitchen and food entrepreneur incubator, Taylor has been an integral part of building up the small business component of the local food supply chain. One tangible result of her work is a step-by-step road map for local food entrepreneurs, to help them navigate starting their businesses, and hopefully take advantage of local sourcing for their production needs. As a result of the apprenticeship, Taylor has acquired expertise in many topics related to food entrepreneurship: from food safety, to establishing an LLC, to making business plans. Being a part of this project with PFAP has made her into a resource for other people, and it has been empowering to be able to help those who are interested in becoming entrepreneurs.
