We believe a thriving community starts with access to healthy foods. That’s why we share the harvest from our Farm with local neighbors through partnerships with The Center for Advocacy, Support & Transformation (CAST) and the Shelter Island Food Pantry.
This Giving Tuesday, we’re raising funds to continue donating our fresh eggs, produce and pork to local food pantries throughout the coldest months.
You can help make twice the impact! Thanks to the generosity of a private donor, every dollar raised will be matched up to $20,000.
Right now, your support matters more than ever.
Here’s what food access looks like on Shelter Island:
CAST now serves 216 individuals in need on Shelter Island.
Last year, CAST’s monthly meals in November and December on Shelter Island nearly doubled compared to the summer months.
The Shelter Island Food Pantry serves approximately 20 households every week and sees an increase in need during the colder months.
Our fresh produce helps bring variety to weekly meals, and welcomes food security for families who need it most.
“We didn’t have fresh produce before the Manor started delivering to us. We’re very grateful.”
– Carrie Wood, Pantry Coordinator, The Shelter Island Food Pantry
“Partnering with local farms like Sylvester Manor means our families get fresh, beautifully grown produce, and they also get a real connection to the land and the people who farm it.”
