From Seed 2 Feed is a BIPOC and Woman owned non-profit that provides free meals and culinary training to the community of the East Bay. The organization's story begins at the REACH Ashland Youth Center in San Leandro, CA as a youth cooking program. The staff noticed that the students were just as interested in sampling their creations, and so the decision was made to go beyond cooking classes and to provide healthy meals for the youth attending the center so that they might be nourished daily. Fast forward to March 2020 when food insecurity affected the population full force. The organization decided to play its part and open the program to all people in need. With the financial backing of the Alameda County Deputy Sheriff's Athletic League, From Seed 2 Feed was able to provide 3,000 free meals.
