As we close out the year, we’re excited to share some incredible milestones and updates from CYEA.

This past Saturday marked our final ProduceCell Food Box Pickup of the year at our Cell Food Produce Market in Forest Park, hosted in partnership with Bud’s Coffee Café at the GA State Farmers Market. Our Champs—Kaden, SunShine, and Ziedale—were unstoppable, selling and giving away fresh produce with the kind of energy and enthusiasm that defines CYEA.

We also want to thank our Visionary Team, Ms. Cheryl and Ms. Gable, for their flawless setup and unwavering commitment during the ArtsXChange pickup.

We’re proud to announce that our Culinary Arts Department has food featured in TWO fantastic locations:

• Ricketts Restaurant (Greenbriar): Serving Turnip & Mustard Greens, Sweet Potatoes, and Onions!

• Bud’s Coffee and Plants Café: Featuring our Desserts and Teas!

On top of that, Ms. Cheryl’s “Mom’s Favorite” German Chocolate Cake from our Bakery Department sold out on its first delivery—an incredible accomplishment!

As we look ahead to 2025, we’re expanding our impact:

• Growing the Produce Cell Food Box Program to help more families eat better and affordably.

• Launching Champs-On-Wheels to bring our fresh food and baked goods to even more locations.

We couldn’t do this without the support of our community, partners, and the dedication of our team. Together, we’re empowering young entrepreneurs and agricultural scientists to grow their legacies while creating meaningful change.

Thank you for being part of our journey. Here’s to an even bigger and brighter 2025!
