🌱 Meet Caroline, our Farm to Table Coordinator at Growing High Point! 🌱

With a B.A. in Environmental & Sustainability Studies and minors in Sociology & Spanish from Elon University, Caroline has dedicated her career to strengthening food systems across North Carolina. Before joining us in September 2024, she worked with N.C. Cooperative Extension in Guilford County, fueling her passion for sustainable agriculture and food empowerment.

Now, she manages our Farm Share subscription program and helps bring fresh, local produce to High Point through Growdega community stops and partnerships with NC farmers! When she’s not working, you’ll find her experimenting with new recipes, crafting macramé art, or tending to her container garden at home. We’re so grateful to have her on the team! 💚

This week we are featuring Pasta Con Cici which is Italian for Pasta with Chickpeas! Chickpeas are a cheap and versatile meat alternative that are a great source of protein, and they mix perfectly with pasta in this super easy dish. This family favorite is ready in minutes, and you can add any other veggies you'd like to make it your own creation!

This St. Patrick’s Day, we’re reminded how lucky we are to grow fresh food, support our community, and share the harvest with our neighbors. Instead of searching for a pot of gold, why not invest in something even more meaningful—healthy food for everyone?

Ways to get involved:
• Volunteer on one of our urban farms
• Support local farmers
• Donate to help provide fresh produce to families in need

Growing together is the best kind of luck.

Happy Pi Day! While strawberries aren’t quite in season yet, we’re reminiscing about last year’s harvest with this photo from last season. Fresh, locally grown strawberries make the perfect filling for a springtime pie—something to look forward to in just a few more weeks! Until then, why not celebrate with a classic apple or sweet potato pie made from in-season, locally sourced ingredients?

What’s your favorite kind of pie? Let us know in the comments!

This past Saturday, Serena Adams, Growing High Point’s Cooking Facilitator, hosted a cooking class at St. Mary’s Episcopal Church in collaboration with the American Heart Association of the Triad.

Happy Meatless Monday!
This week we continue our celebration of national noodle month with a Skillet Lasagna. This meatless lasagna is super easy and you won't even have to turn on the oven! Simply build up your layers in a skillet, cover, and then heat for about 20 minutes and you've got a delicious meal ready to go. You can also make it vegan by substituting non-dairy cheeses and replacing your grated parmesan with nutritional yeast. Easy, delicious, and nutritious!
