Testimonials

An elderly man at a mobile park was new to the neighborhood and his retirement check had been delayed. He was afraid because he did not know how he was going to get food without money from that check. When he saw Our Neighbors Farm & Pantry box truck show up with groceries, he said he could hardly believe his eyes! It was truly a lifesaver! ~ Safford Resident

I think your work is important because the pantry helps meet the food insecurity need in the area. The work at the garden provides a unique place for students to gain knowledge and skills about gardening, as well as ways to live sustainable, healthy lives. The organization, as a whole, encourages community involvement and a sense of pride in Safford. ~ NCCC AmeriCorps Volunteer

The Farm & Pantry is an amazing oasis in the desert, bringing healthy food to the hungry, gardening knowledge to the children, and plenty of support to the amateur gardener. It is a coalition of people who share in the spirit of making this world more beautiful, less hungry, and more productive. Take a drive down 10th Street. If you are lucky you will see sweet peas swaying in the breeze or a volunteer bringing in a beautiful basket of greens for the pantry. If you are REAL lucky, you will hear the laughter of children in the garden and see how they have fun, learn and help make our community a better place to live. ~ Jeanine Munguia, Phoenix
