Seeds The City Needs
Making a difference in Feeding Communities
Our Mission
Seeds the City Needs is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit initiative inspired by the anonymous floral artist Mr. Flower Fantastic (MFF). Our mission is to help eliminate food insecurity in disadvantaged urban communities by providing direct, dignified access to fresh, high-quality fruits and vegetables.
We believe that fresh food is a fundamental right, not a privilege. By supporting the power of contemporary art and sustainable commerce into hyper-local agricultural relief, we deliver nourishment exactly when families gather most. Together with our partners, we are on a direct mission to help eliminate hunger through our own self-sustained engine.
Our Process: How It Works
We operate with love and the efficiency of the dedicated service of our trusted full-service food vendor, Grow Easy Gifts, who sources product from cooperating farms and manufacturers. This allows for the accomplishment of our tri-annual food distribution drops during significant recognized celebrations when families feel the gap in food access most.
- Trusted Community Hubs: We do not store food and we do not believe in making families jump through bureaucratic hoops to access fresh food. To share our gifts safely and with dignity, we partner directly with local schools and churches. By utilizing these familiar sanctuaries, we meet families where they are, using trusted neighborhood anchors to help eliminate barriers to fresh, healthy nutrition. With grateful hearts, each partner church and school acknowledges the gifts received from Seeds The City Needs.
