The Community Crop Cache (C3) project centered on converting an in-place shipping container into a climate-controlled storage container for recovered and harvested fruits and root crops while also supporting additional refrigeration space located at UGArden for fresh produce storage. A surplus of fresh produce grows in the Athens area, and much of it goes uneaten due to lack of infrastructure and storage capabilities. As such, C3 aimed to construct sustainable storage spaces for additional fresh produce processing with the help of Campus Kitchen, Concrete Jungle, UGArden, and Grow It Know It (GIKI). With the combination of increased storage capability and enhanced collaboration between established local organizations, C3 has provided a means to reduce future food waste and combat food insecurity for Athens area residents.
