New Roots executive director Karyn Moscowitz celebrates Rosh Hashanah at a Fresh Stop with a bounty of local apples.
The Gendler Grapevine Project extends our congratulations to one of our 2015 grantees New Roots Inc. Representatives of the Louisville, Kentucky-based organization have been invited to the White House to meet with First Lady Michelle Obama to discuss their successful efforts of connecting low-income people with healthy, fresh food.
The Gendler Grapevine Project supports a New Roots-guided project called “Interfaith Farm to Preschool Initiative,” which connects Adath Jeshurun, a conservative synagogue, and Living Faith Christian Ministries, an African American Church and their Cherish Forever Preschool, to ensure that the children and their families have access to farm-fresh fruits and vegetables through increased participation in the New Roots Fresh Stop Project and other programs.
