Hey friends I want to talk a little more about why GrowSzn thrives off donations.

GrowSzn Does Not Sale Produce because we believe nutritious food is a birthright, not a luxury. We don’t want someone’s ability to eat fresh, nourishing food to depend on what’s sitting in their bank account that day.

But that does not mean the food has no value.

Quite the opposite‼️

The food we grow takes seeds, soil, compost, water, time, labor, knowledge, love, and a whole lot of tending. There is real value in that.👌🏾

That’s why we use suggested donations.

A suggested donation gives people something to work with. It allows you to strategically budget, understand what it takes to grow and provide this food, and contribute when and how you’re able.

And here’s the beautiful part:🫶🏾

Not every donation has to be the same.
Someone may give .50cents
Someone may give $5.
Someone may give $20.
Someone may give $50.
Someone may not be able to give anything at all.

And we understand that 💯

When we allow everyone to participate according to their capacity, the community creates the balance. Bigger donations can help make room for smaller ones. Someone else’s abundance can help cover a moment when someone else simply doesn’t have the capacity.

That is kind community care.

We aren’t asking you to buy your food from us.

We are inviting you to help sustain the system that makes it possible for us to keep growing and sharing it. 🌱

Your donation helps us to keep putting fresh food into the hands of our neighbors.

So when you see a suggested donation, don’t think:

“That’s the price of this food.”

Think:

“This is what it can take to keep this work growing.”

Give what you can. Receive what you need.
And together, we keep the cycle going. 💚🌱

Food has value. Community has value. And neither should be reserved only for those who can afford the most.

🤎 Happy World Breastfeeding Week from GrowSzn 🤎

To every parent who has nourished a baby at the Breast, Chest, Bottle, with pumped milk, donor milk, formula, or a combination of it all:

We see you. We love you. We celebrate you 🫶🏾

Your feeding journey is YOURS—and you deserve to experience it surrounded by support, compassion, and community. There is no one-size-fits-all way to nourish a baby. 🤎

At GrowSzn, we believe supporting the feeding journey also means supporting the person doing the feeding.

That’s why we teach our postpartum families how to grow their own food. 🥕

Because during the fourth trimester, your body is recovering while you’re caring for a brand-new human. Having access to fresh, nourishing foods can make it easier to keep yourself fed while you’re busy feeding and caring for your baby.

Growing your own food can help families:

🌱 Keep nourishing foods close to home
🌱 Build meals around fresh fruits, vegetables, and herbs
🌱 Create simple foods that can be prepared ahead for those long postpartum days
🌱 Reduce some of the stress around figuring out what to eat
🌱 Build confidence and self-sufficiency
🌱 Connect with where their food comes from
🌱 Create a sustainable source of nourishment that can continue beyond the fourth trimester

And there’s something beautiful about it:

You plant the seed.
You nurture the soil.
You watch something grow.
And eventually, it nourishes you and your family.

That’s the same kind of care we want to surround postpartum families with.

Because the person feeding the baby deserves to be fed, too.

Whether you are breastfeeding, chestfeeding, pumping, formula feeding, combo feeding, or navigating a feeding journey that looks completely different from what you imagined—you belong here. You are worthy of support. You are worthy of nourishment. And you are worthy of being celebrated.

This week, GrowSzn celebrates YOU. 🌿

Nourish yourself. Nourish your baby. Grow what sustains you.
