Red Bird Farms Grilled Chicken Topped with Mango Salsa and Micro-greens Paired with Fresh Greens 🥬

Our community ROCKS!!!

October is which is always a nice punch in the gut reminder that I almost lost my lovely wife to this despicable disease (a dozen+ surgeries later). Pre-pandemic, AZPX participated in Cowtown Skateboards fund-raising bowling event for The Joy Bus, our favorite local cancer fighting non-profit. We made a sh*t-load of money over the course of three years and even beat out that pesky Aaron Forjan's team one time.

So this year, if you want to do something awesome, go get an amazing meal at The Joy Bus (link in comments) and **KCANCER

🌟 Volunteer Spotlight: Meet David! He just completed his first delivery for our meal program! 🚚💖 Your dedication and kindness are making a real difference in our community.

On this day of JOY it is all about this very talented lady! She took a (very large) wall and turned it into a happy, joyful masterpiece! We are proud to share this creation with all of our future supporters as they dine with us, deliver meals for our clients, prep in our kitchen, host in the dining room and tend to our gardens 🥰 Know that we are here FOR this community and BECAUSE of this community! 🥹 What a reason to celebrate 🎉
