Spring Equinox Community Gathering
A Day of Renewal, Skill-Sharing, and Collective Care
March 21 | 12:00–5:00 PM

The Spring Equinox marks longer days, returning light, and the steady work of planting what will sustain us. Feed Black Futures invites you to sponsor a community gathering that honors this moment through food, history, movement, and shared practice.

This gathering is about building real tools for resilience, reconnecting neighbors to one another, and remembering that food has always been a site of care, resistance, and possibility.

UPDATE: There are some food boxes still available. However, just beware the office and team of Feed Black Futures will be closed from December 22nd til January 2nd. We apologize for the inconvenience.

When SNAP falls short, we feed each other.

Feed Black Futures is responding to recent SNAP cuts by offering emergency food boxes and direct food aid to community members most impacted.

If you or someone you know needs support, fill out our Emergency Food Box Intake linked in our bio. We are supporting community members in East Oakland, West Oakland, Hayward, and Sacramento’s Del Paso Heights region.

Please scan the QR code above or find the link in our bio.

We’re prioritizing Black, Indigenous, and people of color, caregivers, mamas, and those impacted by the carceral system. To ensure that those most harmed by systemic inequities are nourished first.

Collective care is how we survive and how we thrive.
