Founder and CEO, Steve Rosa, shared a personal connection to the cause: “My family experienced a long period of food insecurity when I was young. The fear and stress were real and traumatic. Helping the Food Bank and a local farm at the same time means double to me.”

Steve added, “volunteering as a team not only allows us to give back to the community but also enhances our sense of unity and purpose. By working together, we not only support those in need but also strengthen our connections with one another.”

Chris Littlefield, one of the (add)venturists who participated, noted, “It was pretty eye-opening hearing about the volume of food that gets left on the fields. Also, it was shocking how good the corn was raw and fresh off of the stalks; we were encouraged to try it out.”
