Foodchain Inc

EIN 45-4088193 • 501(c)3 • Lexington, KY

Profile

Foodchain is located in the heart of an urban food desert, which constitutes a low-income census tract that is further than 1 mile from a grocery store, where residents struggle with both access to nutritious, wholesome ingredients as well as the food literacy that accompanies a diet high in these components. As a consequence, foodchain aims to forge links between our community residents and fresh food with education and demonstration of ways in which fresh food can be grown, acquired, and/or prepared in order to improve the long-term health outcomes of this high-risk population, encouraging a more robust local food economy, and resulting in a more resilient community. Our model, which we believe is replicable in communities around the country, combines unique operations, inluding an indoor aquaponics farm and a teaching and processing kichen.

IRS990/Desc0MANY OF FOODCHAIN'S NEIGHBORS RELY ON DOLLAR STORES AND CONVENIENCE MARTS FOR THEIR WEEKLY SHOPPING, WITH LIMITED FUNDS AND TRANSPORTATION AVAILABLE TO GET TO HIGHER QUALITY STORES WITH A GREATER ABUNDANCE OF NUTRITIOUS WHOLE INGREDIENTS. FURTHERMORE, WITH THE RELIANCE ON SNAP DOLLARS AND OTHER FEDERAL FOOD BENEFIT PROGRAMS, THE COMMUNITY HAS BECOME INCREASINGLY DEPENDENT ON HIGHLY-PROCESSED, SHELF-STABLE "JUNK" FOOD FOR THEIR DAILY MEALS, RESULTING IN GENERATIONAL DIET-RELATED ILLNESSES, INCLUDING HEART DISEASE, DIABETES, AND MORE. WHILE THIS HUNGER-OBESITY PARADOX IS IN PART A RESULT OF LIMITED FOOD ACCESS, IT HAS BEEN EXACERBATED BY A DECLINE IN FOOD LITERACY, WHERE FAMILIES NO LONGER HAVE THE KNOWLEDGE, EQUIPMENT, AND FAMILIARITY TO PREPARE MEALS FROM FRESH INGREDIENTS. FOODCHAIN AIMS TO ADDRESS THIS DEFICIENCY BY OFFERING EDUCATIONAL PROGRAMS TO TEACH COOKING SKILLS, EXPOSING FAMILIES TO A WIDER ARRAY OF CUISINES AND FLAVOR PROFILES, INSPIRING MORE ADVENTUROUS EATING AND KITCHEN CONFIDENCE. WITH THIS MINDSET, WE LAUNCHED NOURISH LEXINGTON AT THE START OF THE PANDEMIC TO PROVIDE SCRATCH-MADE NUTRITIOUS MEALS FOR FREE TO FOOD INSECURE INDIVIDUALS IN OUR COMMUNITY, ALONG WITH EDUCATIONAL MATERIALS, ALL WHILE INVESTING RESOURCES INTO OUR LOCAL FOOD ECONOMY THROUGH THE PRIORITIZATION OF LOCALLY FARMED INGREDIENTS, MADE BY AND DISTRIBUTED BY AREA PROFESSIONALS AAND BUSINESSES. OVERTIME, THIS FOOD ACCESS AND FLUENCY PROGRAM WILL CULTIVATE MORE SELF-SUFFICIENT HOUSEHOLDS, AS FOOD INDEPENDENCE LEADS TO GREATER WELFARE AND ECONOMIC SUSTAINABILITY OF A COMMUNITY.

IRS990/MissionDesc0FOODCHAIN IS LOCATED IN THE HEART OF AN URBAN FOOD DESERT, WHICH CONSTITUTES A LOW-INCOME CENSUS TRACT THAT IS FURTHER THAN 1 MILE FROM A GROCERY STORE, WHERE RESIDENTS STRUGGLE WITH BOTH ACCESS TO NUTRITIOUS, WHOLESOME INGREDIENTS AS WELL AS THE FOOD LITERACY THAT ACCOMPANIES A DIET HIGH IN THESE COMPONENTS. AS A CONSEQUENCE, FOODCHAIN AIMS TO FORGE LINKS BETWEEN OUR COMMUNITY RESIDENTS AND FRESH FOOD WITH EDUCATION AND DEMONSTRATION OF WAYS IN WHICH FRESH FOOD CAN BE GROWN, ACQUIRED, AND/OR PREPARED IN ORDER TO IMPROVE THE LONG-TERM HEALTH OUTCOMES OF THIS HIGH-RISK POPULATION, ENCOURAGING A MORE ROBUST LOCAL FOOD ECONOMY, AND RESULTING IN A MORE RESILIENT COMMUNITY. OUR MODEL, WHICH WE BELIEVE IS REPLICABLE IN COMMUNITIES AROUND THE COUNTRY, COMBINES UNIQUE OPERATIONS, INLUDING AN INDOOR AQUAPONICS FARM AND A TEACHING AND PROCESSING KICHEN.

IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy2Grp/Desc0WHILE ONE ANSWER TO THE LIMITED ACCESS OF OUR FRESH FOOD IS TO INCREASE ITS AVAILABILITY THROUGH RETAIL, FOODCHAIN BELIEVES IT IS EVEN MORE EMPOWERING TO START AT FOOD PRODUCTION. THEREFORE, WE OPERATE OUR INDOOR, STATE-OF-THE-ART AQUAPONICS SYSTEM, GROWING FISH AND GREENS YEAR-ROUND IN A RECIRCULATING SYSTEM THAT REDUCES WASTE AND CONSERVES RESOURCES, WHILE ALSO GENERATING THOUSANDS OF POUNDS OF FOOD THAT CAN BE USED FOR REVENUE GENERATION AND NUTRITIONAL ACCESS. BY RUNNING OUR FARM AS A DEMONSTRATION FACILITY, HOSTING TOURS AND WORKSHOPS FOR THOUSANDS, WE WORK TO GET INDIVIDUALS MORE INVOLVED IN GROWING WHOLESOME FOOD, UNDERSTANDING WHERE FOOD COMES FROM, AND HOW THESE TECHNIQUES COULD BE REPLICATED ELSEWHERE TO INCREASE AGRICULTURL PRODUCTIVITY WHILE SUBSEQUENTLY MAKING FRESH FOOD AVAILABLE ALL YEAR-ROUND FOR ALL.
