Grow

Our GROW programs

Through GROW, we aim to enhance the efficiency of our farming operations, broaden access to agricultural knowledge, and create long-term solutions that minimize waste and strengthen local food systems. By prioritizing innovative practices, collaboration, and education, we are dedicated to fostering a sustainable, equitable, and food-secure future for our communities.

FOOD SHUTTLE FARM

The Food Shuttle Farm grows locally sourced, organically-raised produce that is distributed through our programs, and features a Farm Stand just ten minutes from downtown Raleigh, where visitors can see our work in action.

LEARNING GARDENS

Two community gardens, one on Geer Street in Durham and another on Camden Street in Raleigh, bring neighbors together, promote local food production, and provide opportunities for families to reconnect with nature in areas facing food insecurity.

GARDENS FOR EVERYONE WORKSHOPS

Our former program offering individual garden boxes has been discontinued, but we’re excited to introduce Gardens for Everyone Workshops! These workshops will invite neighbors to build their own garden boxes, futhering our committment to bring homegrown produce to our community.

Stay tuned for more details.

OUR GROW PROGRAMS

We GROW by cultivating…

Our GROW programs redefine innovation by seamlessly blending sustainable agriculture practices with community education and engagement. We enhance farming efficiency and reduce waste while expanding access to agricultural knowledge. By empowering neighbors to cultivate their own food, we foster resilience and strengthen local food systems.

Have an idea of how we can further empower our neighbors? We’d love to chat.
