We ended the 2022 season with 60,600 lbs of fresh produce for our community! This total equates to more than 174,000 individual servings of food…nutritious food that would otherwise have gone to waste. We are so excited to glean in Summer 2023. If you have fresh donations this growing season, reach out to have us help get food to those in need!
Volunteer Season at Fields of Grace is Here!: We are on the lookout for more Volunteers to help us collect donations from vendors at the Richland, Pasco, and Kennewick Farmer’s Market! The donations are given to local food banks such as, St. Vincent De Paul, The Kennewick Food Bank, and The Richland Food Bank. If you are interested in meeting local growers and joining the Farmer’s Market community, email admin@fields-of-grace.com.
Annual Fundraiser: June 17th, our annual Father’s Day Rib Dinner Fundraiser will take place. This fundraiser helps us to bring fresh produce from the farm, into the hands of those in need. Pre-purchase your rib dinner for $135.00, feeds 4. OR donate a dinner to a family in need!! Pay through PAYPAL, or send a check to PO Box 1766 Richland, WA 99352. Each dinner comes with a rack of ribs, coleslaw, potato salad, beans, rolls, and apple crisp. This year Beck’s Family BBQ will be using their commercial smoker to prepare St. Louis style ribs from local Templeman’s Market at Ranch and Home.
