On June 9th, we had the honor of hosting Deloitte practitioners for a special event: Deloitte Impact Day. This event, an embodiment of Deloitte’s commitment to corporate social responsibility, saw the team of practitioners volunteering their time and skills to assist in various tasks around the farm.
The Deloitte team swapped their corporate attire for garden gloves and shovels and plunged headfirst into assisting with bed preparation, planting, and weeding.
The day was not only about work but also about learning. Our team shared knowledge about sustainable farming techniques and the importance of urban farming. The Deloitte practitioners showed genuine interest, engaging in meaningful discussions that promoted an understanding of our mission.
Their impact goes beyond a single day of service. Through their participation, they helped raise awareness about urban farming’s role in fostering self-sufficiency, sparking conversations around food equity that we hope will continue within our community.
We extend our sincerest gratitude to all the Deloitte practitioners who participated in Impact Day. Your hard work and dedication were truly inspiring, and your contributions will continue to resonate within our community.
