Sustainable Harvests, Endless Horizons: The Future of Food Begins Here


We are inspired. For 15 seasons we have grown a village of eaters, thinkers, doers …have put in the sweat equity to build soil health and grow food for our community and the return is a vibrant thriving organization that has had an immensely positive effect on our community. You’ve known the gritty and exciting path that has taken the two of us from hand-planting crops on an acre to a bustling vertically integrated farm and market on 33 acres. We have meticulously planned, tested, executed, and grown food, farmers, and programs. What an adventure! The long hours, complexity of building systems and teams, and the great responsibility of teaching apprentices (who we hope will carry on to start their own farms) has proved to be both challenging and rewarding.

We need your financial support. As you reflect on your relationship with the farm and your meaningful experiences here, please consider making a gift that will help us build on our successes, achieve our goals, and launch into next season with the resources needed to fund the programs that profoundly impact all of us. Can we count on you to help us grow?
