POM Food Bank Hub
Description
POM Food Hub creates a symbiotic relationship between local BIPOC farmers in unincorporated King County surrounding Enumclaw with the POM Food & Clothing Bank in support of strategy 5 of the King County Local Food Initiative to increase the amount of fruits, vegetables, and other healthy food options available in food banks. Purchasing food directly from the farmers benefits their businesses as well as the POM Food and Clothing Bank clients.
