Roots Rising: A Food Truck And Financial Sustainability
Lenox Garden Club, Zone I
2018 Founders Fund Runner Up
Roots Rising seeks to launch a non-profit food truck that will be a mobile classroom, a work site, a business incubator and our flagship enterprise. At-risk teens who work on farms, in community gardens and in food pantries will source ingredients from local farms and prepare nutritious meals that will be sold to the community while they learn entrepreneurial, horticultural, and culinary skills.
