Who We Are

Farming Hope began by two graduate students who had a dream of nourishing dreams and nourishing community through food and job-training. Years later we are still driven by the same core principles that our co-founders wove into the fabric of our work:

Food is a human right. Everyone needs to be needed. Neither food nor human potential should go to waste. Thank you for supporting our Apprentices and our team!

 Farming Hope is different — we pay Apprentices while they learn in our program.
Paying people makes sense, but costs dollars.
