The Northwest Neighborhood Resource Center (formerly Olivet Neighborhood Mission) is a multi-use center that houses both a food market and our Head Start Early Childhood Education program which is aimed at serving our neighbors in need on the northwest side of Cedar Rapids. Those in need of assistance will have the opportunity to make an appointment to reserve a shopping time within NWNRC’s Food Market and receive information on other community programs that can help assist with specific needs.

ProducePedia is a free resource that covers the types of fresh produce that can be delivered to food pantries. Each entry includes information on color, taste, and possible uses. People unfamiliar with the vegetable or fruit will learn how to use it, and those who are familiar with it still might learn a fun fact or two!
The Cooperative Extension sites have a wealth of information for any backyard gardener. Once you go to the site (each one if very different from the others) look for a link for “homes and gardens”, “landscape”, “consumer horticulture”, etc. to find information on improving your backyard garden. Neighboring state sites may offer information your own state’s site lacks.
