Can soul food be healthy? Yes! Soul food began as plant-forward dishes inspired by West African traditions. Today we reclaim it with flavor and wellness. At A Red Circle, we honor food that heals and connects us to heritage. Join us for our Kwanzaa celebration and enjoy a soul food dinner! #Kwanzaa

“When asked why he farms, Farmer Mitch said, ‘I’m a farmer now… or pay a doctor later.’ He reminds us that the body’s healing is strengthened by real, fresh food — and access to it is the heart of food sovereignty. This Giving Tuesday, help A Red Circle grow that vision.”

This year, our gratitude is simple: community. From Good Food Friday to our Healthy Community Market, every smile, volunteer, and neighbor served reminds us why this work matters. Thank you for helping families thrive. 🍂 Happy Thanksgiving from A Red Circle!

STOP saying “Food Desert.” The real term is Food INJUSTICE, and here’s why that distinction matters for racial equity in North County.

At A Red Circle, we know Food Justice is about restoring power. We must fight the systems that create injustice.

Families can’t wait on politics. SNAP will be only half-funded for November, and delays are expected. A Red Circle & B&I Eatery are providing free meals and food packages every Monday starting Nov 10. Donate or give online—North County won’t go hungry. 💪🏽  #FoodJustice

She says it’s “opening my eyes to fun, healthy eating.”
