REIMAGINING FOOD ACCESS AS
COMMUNITY HEALTH INFRASTRUCTURE
Bounty & Soul works at the intersection of food, farms, and health - providing produce markets, and bilingual wellness education that increase food & health security, with dignity and community connection. Their approach nourishes individuals and provides sustaining support to regional farms for long term health and resilience.
Blueprint for Impact is partnering with Bounty & Soul to expand this model across the region, aligning food access with preventative health, local agriculture, and community well-being.
Together, we're demonstrating how fresh food can be a foundation for healthier families, lower healthcare costs, and thriving local economies.

WHAT BOUNTY & SOUL DELIVERS
FRESH FOOD ACCESS
10+ free produce markets each week, with additional home and neighborhood deliveries, reduce barriers to nutritious food and improve health outcomes.
CHRONIC DISEASE PREVENTION
Nutritious foods and accessible health education prevent costly, long-term illness and empower communities.
YOUTH & FAMILY WELLNESS
Cooking classes, nature connection, and movement programs strengthen the well-being of children, caregivers, and families.
LOCAL AGRICULTURE SUPPORT
Steady local demand for fresh produce keeps food dollars in the region and supports farm viability.
HEALTHCARE COST REDUCTION
By addressing root causes of poor health, this food-as-medicine model helps reduce ER visits and prescription dependency.
INNOVATIVE FINANCING MODEL
Why We’re Working with Bounty & Soul
Bounty & Soul’s model is working at scale, with dignity, and with lasting health outcomes. But due to federal budget cuts and unpredictable grant cycles, their core operations face financial insecurity. At the same time, the organization is ready to grow. After years of refining this model and proving its impact, they’re prepared to scale regionally and globally.
Blueprint for Impact is supporting this expansion by building visibility, storytelling tools, and a new financing model that moves beyond donations alone. By aligning food access with healthcare savings, we’re making the case that investing in this work isn't charity, it’s strategy.
