Field to Family is a charitable organization based in Iowa City, Iowa, aiming to foster a regional, sustainable food system that connects local growers with households and institutions. It runs an online market that operates weekly across the growing season, providing seasonal produce, meat, dairy, plant starts, and other farm products with no-contact pickup or delivery. Orders open on Mondays at 8 a.m. and close on Tuesdays at noon for Thursday pickup or delivery; it also manages a wholesale hub for institutions that handles purchasing, aggregation, storage, marketing, and distribution of locally grown foods to wholesale clients and schools. The group operates a farm-to-school initiative and related educational programming focused on the food system, procuring local meals for school lunches and teaching students about where their food comes from. These activities are intended to broaden access to fresh, locally produced foods and to support local farmers. The organization has a small staff and is based in Iowa City, Iowa.
