FOOD for Lane County's Youth Farm

Locale ID OR5143

Run by Jen Anonia


About

Our farm offers over 30 different kinds of sustainably grown produce, including berries and some tree fruit. Boxes feed an average of 3 adults. Low-income youth gain skills at our non-profit farm, and the majority of our produce is distributed to low-income households through the local food bank.

At FOOD for Lane County's Youth Farm, limited-income teenagers participate in a summer educational program where they gain skills in organic agriculture, marketing, teamwork and leadership, and learn about the food system and good nutrition. The Youth Farmers assist in growing over 35 different kinds of organic vegetables, over half of which are donated to FOOD for Lane County, the local food bank. The rest is sold by the youth at an on-site farmstand on Saturdays during the growing season and through a 40-member Community Supported Agriculture Program.

We welcome volunteers of all ages, and have internships, a mentoring program, and community service hours available. The Youth Farmers also give great farm tours.
