Ed’s Southern Food & Spirits Announces Vegetable Growing for the Homeless Project

Help fund a hydroponic vegetable growing operation to help feed the homeless and unemployed in the greater Eastern North Carolina area

Goldsboro, NC – June 26, 2015 – Ed’s Southern Food & Spirits is a farm to table restaurant that has been embraced by the Goldsboro North Carolina community. They have been fortunate with making their dreams come true by using their total combined knowledge of 44 years as business men with other ventures to gain success with opening this restaurant business that uses only fresh and organic products found in their community and farms.

However, these men realize that there are those that are less fortunate in their community who need help in their daily lives with basic necessities such as being able to have enough food to eat a proper meal or not having food at all where these people haven’t eaten all day.

Ed’s Southern Food & Spirits started a Vegetable Growing for the Homeless campaign on GoFundme. Their new idea is a hydroponic vegetable growing operation and urban agriculture project for feeding the homeless and unemployed in their community. Hydroponics is a method of growing plants without soil using water and mineral nutrients allowing a continuous-flow solution culture that allows plants and vegetables to continuously grow under any conditions indoors.

They have filed for a 501 (c)3 status to create a non-profit foundation, however they will not receive their status for many months, so they decided to start this process to help feed the homeless and unemployed by using their own money and  also donations.

About Ed’s Southern Food & Spirits

About 2 years ago, three guys in the Greater Goldsboro and Greenville NC area of Eastern North Carolina had a dream to build a restaurant and serve beautiful and fresh Southern Food that would be a true Farm to Table restaurant, using only fresh and organic products found in their community and farms.  After months of hard work and dedication, they made that dream a reality by opening Ed's Southern Foods on Center Street in Goldsboro NC during the last week of October 2014.
