As part of the firm-wide day of service initiative in honour of Martin Luther King Jr. Day, the Asheville team helped assemble sandwiches and snacks for distribution to the community fridges at the Southside Community Farm.

 

Southside Community Farm is “a Black-led urban farm and food hub in a historically segregated Black neighborhood. [Their] mission is not only to feed people, but to co-create a web of food sovereignty in which community members have tangible power over their local food system.” The community fridges project helps alleviate the cost of living in a food desert, and the fridges are frequented by families and school-age children.
