Ripe Revival is a community-driven organization dedicated to revitalizing local food systems and ensuring access to fresh, nutritious produce for everyone. Through innovative initiatives like their mobile produce bus, Ripe Revival brings high-quality, affordable fruits and vegetables directly to underserved communities. By partnering with local farmers and food producers, they support sustainable agriculture and foster connections within the community. Ripe Revival’s mission is to create a healthier, more equitable food landscape, empowering individuals and families to thrive through better nutrition and stronger community ties.

During this season of gratitude, we are profoundly thankful for our continued partnership with Ripe Revival. Their mobile produce bus has become a highly anticipated presence outside the RHP Welcome Center, providing our adult ESL students with the opportunity to shop for fresh, local, and affordable produce after specific class days. This initiative not only promotes healthy eating but also fosters a sense of community and support among our refugee families.

Community partnerships like the one we share with Ripe Revival are essential to our mission of engaging, equipping, and encouraging refugee families so that ALL may thrive. By bringing fresh produce directly to our Welcome Center, Ripe Revival makes it easier for our students to access nutritious food, which is a crucial aspect of their overall well-being and adjustment to life in a new country.

The impact of Ripe Revival’s mobile produce bus extends beyond providing food. It serves as a beacon of hope and a symbol of the collaborative effort required to support refugee families. This partnership exemplifies the power of community in creating positive change and highlights the importance of working together to ensure that everyone has the resources they need to succeed.

We are elated to have Ripe Revival join us in our efforts to serve the refugee community. We look forward to continuing this fruitful partnership.
