Sponsor a Garden Bed!


Our wooden garden beds are years old and in bad condition. Your sponsorship of a garden bed would cover the cost of a composite garden bed and a custom name plaque which we would attach to the garden bed. Click here to check out the sponsorship site.

We have a fenced garden space containing over 40 raised beds. Year after year, Growers bring a cornucopia of fresh produce to their table: sugar peas, onions, chard, spinach, shallots, potatoes, beans, tomatoes, zucchini, cucumbers, strawberries, blueberries, radishes, carrots, peppers, basil, oregano, and parsley. Not only does fresh produce help sustain the Farm's needs, Growers are invited to take it home to share with their friends and families. Growers plant, water, weed, prune, and pick from the Gardens.

Be a part of our "SHARING HOPE" Community Activities Program
SHARING HOPE is a great way to double your giving impact in the local community.  We ask donors to give to their favorite charity or organization through us.  Read the FLYER  or the rack card for more information.
For example when someone donates $100 they can request we help the places like the Ronald McDonald House or some other local organizations and we make contact with the organization and find out what materials or supplies they need.  The Growers go out and buy the items on their wish list and deliver them to the organization that day. 
This is why we called it SHARING HOPE, donors get to give to their favorite charity and they also SHARE their donation with the Growers in the form of a full day of community volunteer work for our Growers. Our Growers love to do this kind of volunteer work and it gives them a sense that the community needs them and they are valued.
