About Us
A community non-profit rooted in the foothills.
Yubakami connects the farms that grow nutrient-dense food with the neighbors, kitchens, and schools who share it — keeping good food close to home in Marysville and across the Sierra foothills.
Our story
Good food grows good neighbors
We started with a simple belief: everyone deserves food grown with care. So we don’t grow distance into our food. By working with growers right down the road, we keep the harvest fresh, the relationships personal, and the good of it spread throughout our community.
Every crate passes through caring hands — from the farms that cultivate living soil, to the volunteers who gather it at peak ripeness, to the kitchens and schools where it becomes a shared meal. Nothing good goes to waste.
Food for Life…From Living Soil
