Growers in GGNs network increase access to and consumption of fresh and culturally relevant foods. They also increase the economic resiliency of their families through cost savings and income generation. (2) GGNs Land Stewardship Team facilitates access to quality farmland for growers. GGN manages a network of farm and community garden sites across metro-Atlanta in order to increase opportunities for growers to preserve and share agricultural traditions. Through community gardens and farms, the land network is designed to increase cooperation among growers in their production and distribution systems. Additionally, the Land Stewardship Team builds and maintains infrastructure such as irrigation, cold storage, wash stations, and tools and equipment that support growers with activating the land. GGN also works to increase the sustainability of land it manages. (3) GGNs Farm Program Team connects growers who are building agricultural businesses to agricultural, market readiness and business support. GGN also fosters collaborations and coalition building among local partners and stakeholders to create a network of support for farmers includingassistance with organic certification. GGN supports growers who sell produce through a variety of distribution channels to create real economic opportunities in local and regional food systems. (4) GGNs Engagement Team fosters experiential learning and volunteer opportunities for community members to deepen their understanding of regenerative agriculture, local food systems, agricultural heritage, and land conservation. GGNs operations were significantly impacted in April 2019 by flooding at Bamboo Creek Farm, which resulted in the closure of the farm operation and disruption to the sales program. In April 2021, GGN entered into a lease with a purchase option with The Conservation Fund to acquire a 23-acre farm inRockdale County. Operations at the new property began in 2022, and GGN completed the purchase of the farm in 2025 following a successful capital campaign to acquire and develop the property. 869254 true true false false false false false false false false true false false false true false true false false false false false false false true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false true 13 0 true 17 true false false false false false false false 0 false false false false false false false X 15 15 false false false false false false false true true false false true true true true true true false false false GA X X SUSAN PAVLIN 4042546175 500 SOUTH COLUMBIA DRIVE DECATUR GA 30030 SUSAN PAVLIN Executive Dir. 40.00 0.00 X 94554 0 0 JENNIFER SOLOMON-MATTHEWS Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 ADITYA SHRIVASTAVA Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 VIRAJ PATEL Treasurer 1.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 ANN DIGIROLAMO Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 KATIE BEACHAM Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 EVAN DAILY Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 GAURAV UPPAL Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 JENNIFER HIRSCH Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 MANDIRA SETHI Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 MIGUEL GRANIER Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 MONIQUE HICKS Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 ROB FRIEDMAN Secretary 1.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 WHITNEY DAVISON Chairman 1.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 ZHENYA KARELINA Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 94554 0 false false false 0 19195 756569 599946 1375710 GROWER & PUBLIC PROGRAM 19454 19454 PRODUCT SALES 4349 4349 SPEAKING AND SERVICE FEES 23803 13545 13545 0 0 4690 4690 4690 4690 0 92632 19195 53355 39277 0 0 MISCELLANEOUS INCOME 4437 4437 4437 1461462 28493 17982 X 0 0 0 0 94554 75643 9456 9455 603685 463897 76129 63659 0 0 55728 43062 6831 5835 60812 46990 7454 6368 0 0 26847 26847 0 0 0 194551 80941 113610 0 0 6015 129 5886 0 53798 41201 9514 3083 7106 6596 65 445 0 0 0 0 36398 36398 32627 12951 16566 3110 SUPPLIES 58428 48665 4311 5452 DUES AND SUBS 22168 2953 9158 10057 Printing and Publications 6836 5795 324 717 BAD DEBT EXPENSE 6830 1830 5000 12541 4033 6543 1965 1278924 869254 180914 228756 129290 316371 984894 374453 273772 222299 964 2563 0 0 0 0 0 1233736 105470 425837 1128266 0 0 0 0 18714 9558 1833471 2053510 6388 8982 13426 55828 23704 16209 43518 81019 X 552077 1779849 1237876 192642 1789953 1972491 1833471 2053510 182538 X false true X true false X 1409829 989755 1058657 1274416 1356515 6089172 26058 4514 12281 12200 23803 78856 0 0 12666 15867 14781 14781 14781 72876 1448553 1010136 1085719 1301397 1395099 6240904 267800 560989 349247 472500 428500 2079036 0 267800 560989 349247 472500 428500 2079036 4161868 1994 3326 11253 13540 13545 43658 0 1994 3326 11253 13540 13545 43658 0 291 14204 750 33270 67598 116113 1450838 1027666 1097722 1348207 1476242 6400675 0.65020 0.66450 0.00680 0.00520 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 442043 442043 296784 3805 292979 418111 27875 390236 76798 73790 3008 1128266 CREDIT CARDS 920 LEASE LIABILITY - LAND 10189 PAYROLL LIABILITIES 2850 SECURITY DEPOSITS 2250 16209 1509418 47956 47956 1461462 1461462 1326880 47956 47956 1278924 1278924 X false A MEANINGFUL FEAST 111827 19195 92632 24478 1412 500 26965 111827 19195 92632 24478 1412 500 26965 53355 39277 Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 11b A draft of the Form 990 is prepared by the organization's independent accountant.
