Ecosystems of Care

Ecosystems of Care works to build stronger and more just systems of food, information, and resources, to forge connections across neighbors, and generate community power.

Market Box, the core project of Ecosystems of Care, bulk-buys food from small farms and distributes it for free across the South Side of Chicago. In supporting our local food ecosystem and our communities, we seek to reimagine how neighbors can act with accountability towards each other and generate community power in the face of government neglect.
