Hub Happenings
We’re a nonprofit organization serving the greater Kearsarge Area on a mission to reinvigorate our community within a restorative local food system through cultivating food sovereignty, growing engaged learners, and nurturing community.
Here’s the lates news, upcoming events, and exciting things on the horizon for KFH and our local community!
You’re Invited! 2024 Annual Meeting
The entire team here at the Kearsarge Food Hub, home of Sweet Beet, invites you to our 2024 Annual Meeting on April 4th from 6-7:30pm. It’s free and open to all!
Tune in virtually to hear directly from KFH leaders about the impact of our nonprofit programming in 2023. Ask your questions and share in a discussion on the strategic direction of the food hub and the future of our shared work in the local food system.
We envision a resilient and connected community where everyone is empowered to access healthy local foods, where farmers are supported and the land is nourished, and where all neighbors share a common sense of place.
Join us in bringing this vision to life by tuning in for the annual meeting on April 4th.

2022 Annual Report
Dearest Community, we are so very honored to present to you Kearsarge Food Hub’s 2022 Annual Report.
This document contains the stories of our community service through our various nonprofit programs - from Sweet Beet Farm + Market + Cafe to food security, education, and community building efforts. At the heart of these stories are the people - the folks that make up a growing community of local food warriors, each playing an essential role in reinvigorating our community within a restorative local food system.
This report is bursting at the seams with a tremendous amount of heart and dedicated, hard work. We thank all of you for being a part of this journey as we enter into our eighth year as an organization and continue to learn as we grow. It’s simply not possible without you.
A deep, heartfelt thank you to our sponsors.

We acknowledge that our work takes place on N’dakinna, which is the traditional ancestral homeland of the Abenaki, Pennacook and Wabanaki Peoples past and present. We acknowledge and honor with gratitude the land and waterways and the alnobak who have stewarded N’dakinna throughout the generations.
