Thank you for a magical night to remember!

Boogie at the Bog brought our community together for an unforgettable evening of local food, live music, dancing, and generosity—all in support of the Marion Institute’s farm-to-food relief work across Southeastern Massachusetts.

To everyone who attended, donated, sponsored, volunteered, or helped bring the evening to life: thank you. Our host committee, chefs, musicians, and partners made the celebration possible, and our community of supporters made its impact lasting.

You Met the Match!

Thanks to your generosity, we reached our $25,000 matching goal—unlocking an additional $25,000 for a combined $50,000 to support our farm-to-food relief work!

Your support helps Frogfoot Farm – Neighbors Feeding Neighbors and Fields to Families grow, glean, and share more fresh, locally grown food with neighbors in need.

Year after year, you show up for Boogie, and we are incredibly grateful.

A Celebration with Lasting Impact

Through Frogfoot Farm – Neighbors Feeding Neighbors, we grow fresh, nutritious food using regenerative farming practices while engaging and training volunteers. Through our sister program, Fields to Families, we partner with local farmers and volunteers to glean surplus crops and bring that harvest to neighbors experiencing food insecurity.

Together, these programs increase access to fresh, locally grown produce while strengthening our local food system. Every sponsorship, ticket purchased, and donation made helped sustain this work.

Why Your Support Matters

For families experiencing food insecurity, access to fresh, nutritious food can be especially challenging. Our farm-to-food relief programs help local food pantries offer more healthy choices to the neighbors they serve.

In the first full year of our combined efforts, 244 volunteers helped grow, glean, harvest, and distribute more than 174,000 servings of fresh produce to local food pantries. When our pantry partners tell us they wouldn’t have had fresh produce to offer families without these programs, we see the difference your support makes.

Your Community Farm

Frogfoot Farm is a unique partnership between the Marion Institute and A.D. Makepeace Company, which generously provides the land through a low-cost lease while we raise the funds needed to build, operate, and sustain the farm.

Thank you for making Frogfoot Farm your community farm and for helping both programs nourish neighbors across Southeastern Massachusetts.

The celebration may be over, but the growing, gleaning, and sharing continues. Support this work with a donation or by becoming a volunteer!
