CHRSC partnered with FoodShare South Carolina in August 2021 in an effort to help reduce the food access disparity in our community. A lot of our residents face a myriad of barriers including where they live, their age, their income, and whether they have reliable transportation, preventing them from engaging in a healthy lifestyle. A healthy Georgetown County starts with healthy eating habits. We strive to enhance the quality of life in our diverse communities by increasing access to fresh, affordable produce and providing quality cooking skills education.

 

Fresh Food Boxes are filled with 9 to 11 varieties of fresh fruits and vegetables. With the contents changing weekly, it’s an affordable and exciting way to eat healthy food. Bulk buying at wholesale prices makes our boxes more affordable than buying produce at retail stores.

The low cost of our Fresh Food Box allows anyone to buy. Each box also includes unique recipes, tips and nutrition notes to give recipients the encouragement to expand their knowledge, cook new things and eat healthier.
