A STATEMENT FROM SUSANNAH BERRY, BOARD CHAIR OF THE NASHVILLE FOOD PROJECT
The Nashville Food Project is a close-knit community of staff, volunteers and community partners, and we want to share some important recent news about our founder, CEO and friend, Tallu Schuyler Quinn.
Tallu is currently undergoing medical treatment for a brain tumor. It is still early in her treatment. In the meantime, the board is working closely with the dedicated staff to ensure that all of The Nashville Food Project’s vital programs and operations continue without interruption. We are committed to the organization’s core mission to bring people together to grow, cook and share nourishing food, with the goals of cultivating community and alleviating hunger in our city. And in this pandemic, that mission remains more urgent than ever.
All of us connected to The Nashville Food Project are keeping Tallu and her family in our thoughts and prayers — and know that, throughout our community, so many others are doing the same. As we’re able to share further updates about Tallu’s well-being, we will. Thank you for your support, your kindness and your understanding.
