Bringing people together for connection, care & joy! We cook, garden, eat and have fun together.
Our Mission Statement
Sunrise Project serves Douglas County by providing space and opportunities for people of all ages and backgrounds to build an equitable community through education, good food, and social connection.
We bring people together through our free community meals, garden and orchards, weekly cafes, 24/7 porch pantry and more!
We cultivate collective well-being and joy through community care and social connection. We need each other!
Through a shared learning model, we learn from each other in the garden, kitchen and through our social connections.
