We’re grateful for our community partner, Companion Baking Co.! We purchased some of their freshly baked bread to help us nourish local families during our recent food distribution events, and they matched our purchase with an equal amount in donations!

Even more inspiring? Members of the Companion team, including Founder & Owner Josh Allen, Director of Retail Operations & Owner Jodi Allen Gordon, and several others, spent the day with us, volunteering side by side to support our neighbors.
