Inspiring Individuals in
Their Pursuit of Wellness
Food Depot to Health helps individuals and families connect food, wellness, and community. From cooking classes and farmers’ markets to school programs and research partnerships, we bring hands-on education and practical resources to every corner of Cleveland.
Where Food Becomes Medicine
Healthy food is a powerful tool for wellness and equity.
We believe access to fresh, whole foods—along with the knowledge to grow and cook them—can transform lives. Whether we’re teaching urban gardening, hosting cooking workshops, or supporting clinical research, our work always starts with people.
We’re a Cleveland-based nonprofit growing health from the ground up.
Since 2009, we’ve helped neighbors build healthier habits and stronger communities through food-focused education, hands-on training, and trusted partnerships. We offer everything from seasonal homesteading classes to nutrition equity initiatives—because everyone deserves the chance to thrive.
We’re a community outreach nonprofit focused on building genuine, lasting connections between neighbors.
Whether it’s through shared gardens, porch potlucks, or helping hands during tough times, we create space for people to come together, show up for each other, and grow something better — together.

Produce Prescriptions
Our work begins where people live, work, and learn. Every garden built, class taught, or partnership formed is grounded in real local needs.
Rooted in Community
We believe strong communities start with simple, face-to-face moments. When neighbors connect, trust grows — and so does belonging.
From Education to Action
We don’t just talk about wellness—we teach it, practice it, and make it accessible through programs that meet people where they are.
Small Steps, Big Change
A shared meal, a borrowed rake, a garden planted together — small things can transform a neighborhood. We make those moments easier.
Everyone Belongs
Inclusivity is at the heart of everything we do.
No matter your background, age, or ability — you’re welcome here. If you live nearby, you’re part of Common Ground.
