Sullivan Catskills Regional Food Hub
In early 2023, A Single Bite assumed operations at the Sullivan Catskills Regional Food Hub — a 5,000-square-foot facility in Liberty, NY. With this expansion, and a newly constructed commercial kitchen, we are now able to provide even more meals to families and children in need. The facility has also allowed us to add local food distribution to our core mission and have begun to increase the amount & quality of local produce on school menus and in local food pantries.
