Veggie Box & BBQ Fundraiser
From now until August 21, you can purchase veggie boxes for yourself or donate them to families in need via the Boys & Girls Clubs of Monterey County, Salvation Army Salinas, The Food Bank for Monterey County and Second Harvest Food Bank.
The beloved annual fundraiser makes a significant impact by sustaining vocational training for our students while also feeding families in need.
What’s in the boxes amounts to much more than healthy food options. It’s a taste of our home—what has been referred to as the “Salad Bowl of the World.” Every Veggie Box may include everything from strawberries and lettuce to artichokes and Brussels sprouts—each a symbol of the region’s agricultural backbone.
Beginning August 24, teams of volunteers will work in shifts to pack boxes and deliver them throughout Monterey County and beyond. On August 28, we will conclude with a delicious BBQ lunch, also on sale now, prepared on-site by our culinary team and volunteers. Enjoy your meal on our beautiful grounds or take it to go.
All proceeds from veggie boxes and BBQ lunches benefit Rancho Cielo programs.
