The San Luis Valley of Colorado -- a vast, beautiful, 8,000 square mile high-desert plain nestled within the Rocky Mountains; our home -- suffers from higher than average food insecurity. This means, for many who live here, there's either frequent worry over the availability of nutritionally adequate foods, or a lack of enough food to enjoy healthy, active lives.

​

In two of the SLV’s six rural counties, nearly 1 in 4 children are affected by food insecurity, and in all six counties, averages for all ages are above or well above both state and national levels.

​

Also, nearly half of the San Luis Valley’s population identifies as either Hispanic or Latino, making this insecurity a form of social health inequity.

​

In this "post-COVID" world -- where food price inflation and fresh food shortages are commonplace on both the national and international level -- Tomorrow’s Bread, our San Luis Valley-based 501(c)(3), aims to help alleviate this local insecurity and inequity from within our own community.
