| FEATURE Growing Together: CUESA's 2015-16 Annual Report | As we come together with family and friends during this time of Thanksgiving, we are grateful for you: our community of market shoppers, supporters, volunteers, farmers, chefs, and food crafters who are so firmly committed to growing a healthy and sustainable world, where good food is available to everyone. With your partnership and support, we have made tremendous progress over the last year, connecting thousands of city dwellers, young and old, with healthy food and local farmers. Your support has pushed CUESA's markets and programs into new territory, allowing us to serve more communities and bring more people to the table. Take a visual look back at the progress you've brought to life in CUESA's 2015-16 Impact Report. While the future holds many unknowns, we are ignited with the fierce desire to protect and support the causes you hold dear: family farms, our children's health, the environment, and fair food for all. There is much work ahead, and your support is more critical than ever. Thank you for accelerating the food movement forward. We can't wait to see the progress we will make together in 2017. |
