How You Can Help
In the past year and a half, Hollygrove Market & Farm has made tremendous strides. We have grown from a small operation with few tables and chairs and 25 members to a brick-and-mortar store with a wide variety of local food items serving hundreds of people per week. Our farm has also grown, with farm plots and community garden plots nearing full occupancy. We will continue to grow the market and improve the farm & gardens, but with your help we can reach our goals faster.
To give you an idea on where we're heading, here are a list of goals which we hope to accomplish in the coming years:
-Open a full-time food market which will serve the needs of Hollygrove & surrounding neighborhoods.
-Build a community kitchen to host nutrition classes, cooking demonstrations, and implement a senior citizen meal delivery program to the residents of Hollygrove.
-Establish an urban farming education program
-Host field trips and workshops for school children (K-6)
-Create an interactive educational center highlighting sustainable development features on-site
-Develop large scale composting operations
