A Leap Towards Community Nourishment: Our Collaboration with The Great Plains Food Bank
We’re absolutely over the moon to share some heart-warming news with you all! Pemmican Patty Food Co. has been given the incredible opportunity to supply 6,300 of our nourishing Bisonberry Blends Blueberry/Sage bars to the Great Plains Food Bank (GPFB). This is not just a business collaboration, but an exciting leap towards supporting our community and spreading love through our wholesome food.
The story began in the blossoming month of April this year when an email pinged into our info@pemmicanpatty.com inbox. It was Grant, the new Food Resource Manager for GPFB, who showed interest in our products. He informed us that our Bisonberry Blends Bars could potentially qualify under a grant they had received from the USDA. This grant was specifically designed to encourage organizations like GPFB to purchase local food, thus promoting sustainability and supporting local businesses.
You can imagine our delight upon hearing this news! Not only would our Bisonberry Blends bars reach more people, but we would also be contributing to a cause close to our hearts – feeding those in need within our community.
What makes this collaboration even more special is the fact that it aligns perfectly with our mission to share our culture and blessings, not only within Indian country, but with the wider community around us. We believe in creating products that are steeped in tradition, filled with nutrients, and bursting with flavor. And now, thanks to GPFB and the USDA grant, we have the opportunity to share these nutritious treats with a broader audience.
For those interested in learning more about the USDA program that made this collaboration possible, we encourage you to read more about the Local Food Purchase Assistance Cooperative Agreement Program on the Agricultural Marketing Service website.
As we embark on this exciting journey with GPFB, we want to express our heartfelt gratitude to each one of you for your continued support. You are the reason we do what we do, and we couldn’t be more thrilled to take this next step with you by our side. Here’s to sharing more love, more culture, and more nutrient-packed Bisonberry Blends bars with our community!
Stay tuned for more updates on this exciting collaboration!
