Food is where we start.

Reliable access is what we build.

GOTURSIX builds community-owned food access systems through Third Spaces with Blessing Boxes, gardens, disc golf, and local partnerships across South Central Missouri.

Founded by Veterans: The Third Space Approach

GOTURSIX creates Third Spaces—places outside of home and work where people come together through shared activity.

Participation makes coordination possible. Coordination makes food access more reliable.

We do not operate as a food provider. We build the local capacity that allows communities to sustain access themselves..

How It Works

Community participation powers everything at GOTURSIX.

Disc golf, volunteering, local partnerships, and sponsorships all support projects that strengthen food access across the Ozarks.

Every activity contributes to building community-owned infrastructure that keeps food accessible over time.

FOOD DESERTS: WHY LOCAL FOOD ACCESS MATTERS

Food shouldn’t be a long drive or a hard ask. This USDA map shows how far many Missourians have to go just to buy groceries. The highlighted areas represent communities where food access depends on distance, time, and systems that can fail quickly—underscoring the importance of strengthening access closer to home. GOTURSIX strengthens local capacity so access remains reliable over time.
