Local Involvement
staying connected to our roots
FoodScience® is committed to supporting local nonprofits whose invaluable services benefit our fellow Vermonters. Through financial contributions and volunteer efforts, we continually strive to make a difference in our communities.
In 2018, FoodScience® launched Good Neighbor Day, an annual event to support local organizations through a company-wide volunteer day. Each year, we close down our offices and stop production to roll up our sleeves and get to work for nonprofits that support our community.
Helping Hands at Camp Hochelaga
Our inaugural Good Neighbor Day was held in 2018 at Camp Hochelaga, a YWCA camp for girls located on beautiful Lake Champlain. With 175 employees participating, our teams painted cabins, built 18 wooden benches, and helped prepare the camp for winter. In total, the volunteer day saved the camp approximately $13,000 for these projects.
Vermont Youth Conservation Corps
In 2019, we partnered with VYCC, a non-profit that provides paid work for young adults through farming and conservation projects. Our teams helped prepare their 400-acre campus for spring harvest through projects like repairing greenhouses, gleaning and storing vegetables and rebuilding decks and walkways.
