"As we continue to build and develop Terra's Kitchen, we are proud to support Friends of Great Kids Farm through the Ed Reed Foundation and contribute to efforts to ensure Baltimore students have the opportunity for healthy and nutritious lunches, while learning more about the food they eat and where it comes from."

"The Ed Reed Foundation is grateful to have supporters like Terra's Kitchen that champion and share our goals, specifically our work in supporting local Baltimore kids," said Ed Reed, Founder of the Ed Reed Foundation. "For kids, being healthy starts with education and family life in the home, and as a community we will continue to support this message and cause."
