In 2007, BACS initiated its Culinary Social Enterprise Kitchen. Our goal is to create a sustainable nutrition program based on organic local food, a breadth of culinary techniques and styles, reduced waste, and recycling. Meals for Change is an exciting new line of all-natural, ready-cooked retail food entrees—with all earnings supporting BACS programs. Simply put, there is absolutely nothing like our Social Enterprise Kitchen anywhere. Meals for Change simultaneously: - Strengthens Our Community – and the resources available to our most vulnerable citizens. - Supports Family Farmers – and helps maintain vibrant greenbelt areas. - Reduces Our Carbon Footprint – and the environmental impact associated with getting food to our tables. - Creates a Sustainable, Local Economy – and a replicable model that can enable social programs throughout the Bay Area (and beyond) to become more self-sufficient. Our kitchen will expand the nutritional services we provide and create jobs, while providing fresh, appetizing, healthy meals at a reasonable cost for senior centers, community groups, and other supportive agencies. Click here to learn about our farm-to-table program. We strive to be innovators in healthy, sustainable, low-cost nutrition programs. We look forward to having you join us in this enterprise.
