Community Partnerships for Healthy Food Systems
Welcome to Day 4 of our Virtual Gala Week! Today we are highlighting Project GROWS commitment to healthy food systems, and individuals and groups who go above and beyond in their work to ensure the health and well being of our community. Join us in recognizing the passion and dedication of our community partners, and local farms and organizations who share our vision.
Food Security Story Map

Highlighting our community partners and their efforts to promote healthy food systems, we want to acknowledge our inspiring partners Diane Hawkins and Amy Falk at the Central Shenandoah Health District (CSHD) and their innovative work in food security and public health. This story map provides a unique look into the public health markets, and WIC and SNAP support throughout Virginia, as well as where we partner with them in this work. Thank you, Diane and Amy, for your hard work and dedication to our Virginia communities.

Improving Food Access: Farmer's Markets

Project GROWS’ mission is to improve the health of youth through garden-based food education and access to nutritious, local food. During the summer months Project GROWS runs the Waynesboro Farmer's Market, North Augusta Farmer's Market, and the Staunton-Augusta Health Department Farmer's Market. Project GROWS is working to increase food access in our community through a variety of healthy food incentive programs at our farmer’s markets including the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) and the WIC & Senior Farmer’s Market Nutrition Program (FMNP).

All of our markets feature 100% locally-produced products: all items sold at our markets are grown or made within 60 miles of our market locations.
