Feast Down East

Feast Down East is a non-profit organization, grant-funded through UNC Wilmington. Its goal is to build a strong vibrant local food system. Feast Down East helps small scale limited-resource farmers build and sustain their farms and connect them with local markets, such as schools, universities, restaurants, institutions and direct-to-consumers. Feast Down East aims to educate consumers and students on the importance of supporting local agriculture and increasing the consumption of fresh local foods.

Feast Down East is a service site for FoodCorps. Service members have built and maintained four school gardens and one community garden in New Hanover and Brunswick counties
