We’re thrilled to share an exciting milestone: Real Food CT has donated over 100,000 pounds of fresh, locally grown produce in 2025 so far! That’s the equivalent of more than 83,000 healthy meals provided to our community, according to Feeding America.

With a year-end goal of 125,000 pounds, we’re on track for a record-breaking season — but we can’t get there without you!
