The Edible Prairie Project works to get local food grown and produced in Campbell County into the hands of local children and families that need it most. We operate six mission-driven programs designed to make local food more available, affordable, and accessible. Our Summer Weekend Meals for Kids program provides kid-friendly and nutritious weekend food packages to children from food insecure households each weekend during summer break. We maintain the Gillette Little Free Pantries – a network of upcycled newspaper dispensers placed in our city parks containing food and personal care items that any member of our community can access at any time. Our multi-farm veggie baskets bring locally grown produce to everyone through our innovative “pay-what-you-can” pricing structure - everyone gets the same quality and quantity of produce regardless of the price paid. We also provide free garden kits to families in need that would like to grow their own edible garden at home, collect gleaned produce from local farmers fields that we donate to local food banks including the Council of Community Services and Free Mercantile at Rawhide Elementary, and work with local social service agencies to plant edible gardens for their clients to enjoy.
