The Food for Thought Project
How to Join the Orange Bag Movement
Once you sign up with us, we will leave a bright orange bag by your front door. You buy one extra non perishable food item each time you go to the store and place it in the bag. Every other month Food For Thought Project, Inc. volunteers pick up your filled orange bag and leave you an empty one. Bags are left by the front door, and we try to make it a simple as possible to participate. You may donate as little or as much food items as you wish, and you may stop participating in the program at any time (please, just let us know). The success of our program has been built through many individuals giving a little, and that adds up to a lot. Help feed the hungry and donate to charity.
Food for Thought has assisted the following Forsyth County food banks: Abba House; Cumming First United Methodist Church; Cumming Baptist Church; First Christian Church; Life Church; Meals by Grace; Mountain Lake Church; Pleasant; Grove United Methodist Church; St. Joseph’s Food Pantry

About Our Sponsors
Alta Cucina Italia
A&A Alta Cucina was born seeking a way to transport our senses to Italy and its unique and traditional food flavors, while being far away from her. We enjoy developing gourmet Italian foods using recipes and traditions from my family. We use only the freshest and finest ingredients that allow us to offer you the best tasting blend of seasonings & salts, infused olive oils, tomato sauces, pestos & balsamic reductions that you will ever experience. Now you can make traditional Italian dishes easily at your home in just minutes -- the Italian way! All our artisan products are HANDMADE in small batches, using old traditions that allow us to put the passion Italians have for their traditions and food into every single product make. We are committed to GREEN & LOCAL practices; we only use 100% NATURAL ingredients, without any artificial flavors, colors, or preservatives, and when not using Italian ingredients, we use local ones. Also we encourage environmental responsibility to our employees and customers by using eco-friendly and recyclable materials in our packaging.

The High Museum of Art
Josefine and Me
I love creating things that are colorful and comfortable but versatile too. Fashion has always been very important to me. When I was a kid and had no idea how to sew I would buy fabric in hopes to make a dress for my sister. I would cut the fabric and then start hand sewing the seams. Of course they never turned out BUT I certainly had the passion. Once I became a stay at home mom I had more of an opportunity to pursue my desire to sew and create clothing. My extremely talented, best friend gave me a sewing lesson! After that I was hooked. I bought a sewing machine and practiced every second I could. I started with accessories and pillows then discovered the beautiful art of upcycling clothing and I haven't looked back.
I love what I am doing and hope you enjoy it too!

Kids find comfort in the movies or video game of their choice. Teens find comfort in being able to get the haircut they want whether its long or short. Adults love the appointments, no more waiting an hour on Saturday for a 20 minute haircut, like at the walk in chains.

Tiger Mountain Vineyards
Tiger Mountain Vineyards, a boutique North Georgia winery, cultivates all of its grapes and produces all of its handcrafted wines in the mountains of Rabun County. The winery, along with its historic Red Barn Cafe, is jointly owned by four native Georgians, John and Martha Ezzard and John and Marilyn McMullan.
Tiger Mountain Vineyards is proud of the old-world methods used in creating our handcrafted wines. We produce traditional dry wines in the European style from each of our grape varieties, three red blends, and an award-winning semi-dry Rose as well as a late-harvest dessert wine. Our red wines are fermented in small-batch open tanks. Each tank is meticulously monitored and tended by hand. White wines are fermented in French oak barrels and bottled precisely when the desired crispness is achieved. We barrel age our reds for two years in American oak. All of our wines are delicately pressed using water pressure. While continuing to focus on traditional methods, Tiger Mountain Vineyards has recently invested in expert consultation so that we may continue improving each new vintage of our top-quality wines.
