Project Aim

Our goal is to make it possible and affordable for everyone on the island to have fresh, organic local veggies.

Further details

 We are an urban SPIN farm operating under three goals:  1. Use any land available.  2. Grow sustainably and organically.  3. Be affordable for just about everyone.

We farm on 1/2 acre plots anywhere available, we are Certified Naturally Grown, and we manager our soil and water sustainably using no-till methods, rainwater collection and drip irrigation.  We offer a subscription box program for the central island region.  The fact that only 5% of our food comes from the island is ridiculous, with our excellent growing season and fertile soil.  We want to change that number.
