A Single Bite was born out of two passions coming together.

 The first passion is supplied by the spiritual legacy of the late Barry Foster who dedicated his life and also his career to empowering, teaching and inspiring children in our community. His love of his town and region.  His unwavering belief that every child represents an opportunity for each of us to make a positive difference.  And his unabashed love.  Barry was dedicated to his community and the children in it regardless of their background.  His sense of pride was manifested through a child growing into a positive and productive member of society.  And he would do everything he could to assist in that endeavor.

The second passion comes from Sims Foster who co-founded Foster Supply Hospitality along with his wife and partner Kirsten Harlow Foster.  Sims and Kirsten have built a dynamic small hotel and restaurant company in Western Sullivan County and core to their belief in life and business is "community first".  It was only natural given their passion for food and hospitality that Sims would take his father's teachings and apply it to something tangible and personal.  He would attempt to change the way a kid thinks about food, choice and perhaps life.  One Single Bite at a time.

Food is Love.
