A morning 5K, wellness festival, and thousands of free plant-based meals for our community.

In a city as vibrant as DC, everyone should have access to healthy food.

Yet too many of our neighbors face barriers to food access.

Eat The Change Day is our chance to change that, together.

We’re starting with 2,000 free plant-based meals from PLNT Burger. But that’s just the beginning.

With your help, we’ll reach 5,000 meals across DC.

Every ticket, every step, every dollar moves us closer to that goal.

Thanks to our partnership with DC Greens, 100% of donations and proceeds from our ticket saleshelp advance healthy food access and nutrition security in our city.

DC residents want healthy food choices, and they desire a food system that gives them easy access to quality, affordable, nutritious food.

Yet, more than 37% of DC residents face barriers to food access.

That means over 1.2 million people don’t have easy access to the healthy foods they need to live and thrive.

As grocery prices continue to rise, so do the number of communities left without the nutrient-dense foods they need to thrive.

But it doesn’t have to be this way.

Healthy food is a human right. And the path to nutrition security starts with community.

That’s why we’ve partnered with DC Greens, a local nonprofit advancing food access and health equity through their award-winning produce prescription program, Produce Rx, and their community farm in Southeast D.C., The Well at Oxon Run.

Eat The Change Day channels our collective power into purpose-driven action.

Plant the seeds of change at our citywide celebration.

Nurture ourselves and our neighbors with fresh, healthy plant-powered meals.

Grow a movement for nutrition security that lasts all year long.

When everyone eats and moves well, our whole community flourishes.

Expect a full day of community action and celebration that features:

Start Strong: Kick off the day with a community 5K, as we stride toward a healthier city.
Meals That Matter: Over 2,000 craveable PLNT Burger meals, on the house.
Stretch It Out: Hit the “Stretching Green” for yoga, guided stretches, and a midday reset.
Voices of Change: Hear directly from the neighbors and leaders creating change across the city.
The Wellness Festival: Connect with the people and programs making nutrition security possible.

2,000 meals donated. 3,000 to go.

When you buy your ticket, you can add one (or ten!) meals to be donated to families facing food insecurity through our partners at PLNT Burger and DC Greens.

Not joining us in person?

You can still fuel the movement by donating meals!

It’s one of the easiest ways to make a real impact, even if you can’t make it to DC.

Can you help us give away 5K+ meals?
