We are establishing a 501 3 C non-profit branch of Farm to Family.  Through the non-profit, we will be able to accomplish many of the urban agricultural and educational goals that we have set in place through our current business model. Our plan is to establish an Urban Farm Training Center where we can help educate kids/others about growing, preparing and eating healthy food and food security issues.  We are in the developing stages of this project with lots of project/events on the horizon.  Stay tuned for all of the excitement that is to come!

Although our 501 3 paperwork is almost finished and we will be able to formally start fundraising soon, we are urgently in need of financial assistance NOW to help Mark pay for his Growing Power Commercial Urban Agriculture training courses(tuition + airfare).  We are excited to have such a great opportunity to learn from  Growing Power founder/leader Will Allen, and bring this knowledge back to Richmond, VA.

We are also in need of funds/donated equipment to improve our Urban Farm and get ready for the Spring growing season. We need to purchase equipment and raw materials for the following:

raised beds

hoop houses

upgrade our greenhouse

hydroponics

vermiculture

compost units

seeds

tools

irrigation system

aquaponics
