Financial Statement Notes

Pt X, Line 2

“The organiztion is exempt from federal income taxes under 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. However, the Code also provides that income from certain activities not related to the organizations tax-exempt purpose may be subject to taxation as unrelated business income. The organization had no income from unrelated business activities for 2024 and was therefore not required to file Form 990-T. The organization believes that it has appropriate support for all tax positions taken, and as such, does not have any uncertain tax positions that are material to the financial statements.”

IRS990/Desc0FEAST (K-8) public school program reaches 1,600 students each year in Buncombe and Madison Counties, teaching essential gardening and cooking skills. At our partner schools-where an average of 66% of students qualify for free or reduced- price lunch-we manage school gardens that function as both educational spaces and vital food hubs. These gardens serve historically marginalized communities that often lack accessible sources of fresh produce within walking distance. The FEAST program held over 600 hands-on cooking and gardening classes for students, facilitated more than 200 hours of volunteer work, and maintained five thriving school gardens. We organized 48 Garden and Gather workdays, hosted seven successful plant sale fundraisers, and distributed over 2,000 plants to community gardens and schools. In total, we helped distribute more than 10,000 pounds of fresh, locally grown food to individuals and families across our service area.

IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy2Grp/Desc0Community Garden Network (CGN) brings together over 30 food-producing gardens throughout the region to increase fresh food access, wellness, and community connection. Community Garden Network remained a vital hub of education and resource-sharing. We offered 10 free public workshops, drawing over 400 participants and covering topics ranging from Cooking With the Seasons to Invasive Pest Management. We continued to maintain and share community seed libraries and a tool library to support gardeners across the region. . By sharing tools, land, labor, and seeds-and offering monthly free educational workshops on topics identified by our garden partners-we help entire neighborhoods. Today, these community gardens produce thousands of pounds of food and are spaces for connection, fresh food access, business incubation, and civic engagement.
IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy3Grp/Desc0Pearson Garden Food Hub: We provide technical assistance to the gardens, as well as food-producing plants from our model Food Hub at Pearson Garden. At Pearson Garden, we have engaged hundreds of volunteers and offered training to thousands of community members to build and showcase systems such as rainwater catchment, composting, greenhouse and nursery plant production, sustainable cob buildings, terrace gardening, hugelkultur beds, and CoolBot walk-in cooler technology. In addition to growing a diverse array of fruits, vegetables, and herbs onsite, we distribute this fresh produce to our public-school partners, community partners, and neighborhoods in need, helping to directly support food access across the community.

IRS990ScheduleD/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt0The organiztion is exempt from federal income taxes under 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. However, the Code also provides that income from certain activities not related to the organizations tax-exempt purpose may be subject to taxation as unrelated business income. The organization had no income from unrelated business activities for 2024 and was therefore not required to file Form 990-T. The organization believes that it has appropriate support for all tax positions taken, and as such, does not have any uncertain tax positions that are material to the financial statements.
