Rooted in compassion for the hungry, we believe that every Coloradan in need should have equitable access to fresh nutritious vegetables. With generous donations, Colorado Farm to Table has donated 3 million pounds of produce to the hungry over the past 30 years. We're making a difference in Colorado's food insecurity problem, but we need your help to do more. You can give a one-time or recurring gift. Consider becoming a Harvest Circle individual member or corporate partner with a monthly donation to provide steady support for planting, growing, and distributing fresh vegetables.
The Colorado Hunger Problem
The stark reality:
- 1 in 8 Coloradans face food insecurity -- that's more than 660,000 people.
- 1 in 7 Colorado children experience hunger -- 180,000+ kids.
- Every Colorado county has families struggling to afford food.
- Middle-income families struggle, too: 22% earning $60-90K can't afford enough food.
When children don't eat, they can't learn:
- Hungry children score lower on math and reading tests.
- Food-insecure students are twice as likely to repeat a grade.
- Proper nutrition can increase IQ by up to 18 points.
- Well-fed children have 31% better attenance rates.
