Forced to relocate by Lakewood church, Joy’s Kitchen found a new home in Denver. Despite a high density of nearby food services, the pantry sees no shortage of need.

Joy’s Kitchen was forced to leave the church it operated out of for more than a decade. It relocated to downtown Denver, far from the community it served.

Family gardens provide fresh produce, outdoor activity and cultural connection for residents living in a designated food desert.
