Orange County Food Trust
​​​Orange County Food Trust is a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit founded in January 2024. Our mission is to serve the needs of local growers, producers and consumers by aggregating and distributing goods, services and healthy local food choices at fair value. We combine our resources with other community partners to provide nutritional food from farms to friends.

Our Programs
Food is Medicine
We partner with organizations like Purdue Extension and Hoosier Uplands to provide nutritious meal kits to those enrolled in nutrition programs. This program aims to prevent diet-related disease.
Crawford County Farmstand
We also operate a farmstand in Crawford County during the growing season on Friday mornings. This is a low-income county with health disparities that could greatly benefit from healthy, fresh produce at reasonable prices.
Community Events
We often partner with local organizations for community events, such as the community Thanksgiving dinner, community garden, processing and baking classes and senior soup dinners at Lost River Co-op & Cafe.
