Simply Fresh 'Farmers to Families' Boxes Provide Hunger Relief to Floridians
Working with the Feeding America food bank network, FiveStar, the maker of Simply Fresh branded products, is now on the frontlines distributing fresh and wholesome foods directly to the community as part of a massive USDA-funded program known as “Farmers to Families.” FiveStar committed to providing hundreds of thousands of boxes filled with high quality, fresh, healthy products through the end of June. FiveStar’s Farmers to Families boxes include generous portions of Caesar Salad, Coleslaw Salad, Sweet Onion Broccoli Sauté Kit, Asian Stir-fry Kit, Almond Cranberry Salad, and Crisp Sliced Apples.
Distribution through local food banks, churches, parks, and community resource centers has been critical to getting the boxes “from truck to trunk” into the hands of families in need of fresh, wholesome food. “We have proudly served the Florida market for years, we are part of the community and at this moment we knew we had to take immediate action to help,” says Tal Shoshan CEO of FiveStar Gourmet Foods.
