Join our Network of Monthly Donors

Help us keep food growing and young people connecting to the land and themselves through hands-on learning on schoolyard farms right in their own communities!

Monthly Giving is an easy way to make a big difference by helping us reduce administrative costs and provide foundational, reliable, and ongoing income we need to purchase items like seeds and compost for the schoolyard farms and plan and deliver programs throughout the year. You’ll also receive access to events and farm tours in addition to bi-annual updates to share the impact of your donations.


Team Building

Gather your friends, family, or community group for a rewarding day on the farm! Join us to dig in the soil, plant crops, and help with seasonal farm tasks while learning about sustainable agriculture and local food systems. It’s a fun, hands-on way to connect with the land, make a difference, and support youth education and food resilience in your community.
