About the Farm

Background

Root Cause Farm began with a mission to address various forms of hunger through community-driven solutions. Over the years, it has become known for its dedication to equity, social justice, and the intentional cultivation of relationships within the community. The farm distributes its produce locally, including at their own site and through partnerships with food pantries and other organizations.

Practices

Root Cause Farm employs organic farming methods on a one-acre plot, emphasizing the importance of food as a tool for connection and action. The farm's practices are deeply rooted in principles of equity, social justice, and intentionality, ensuring that every step taken is mindful and inclusive. Volunteers play a crucial role in the farm's operations, directly influencing the amount of food produced and distributed.

The Rest

Root Cause Farm encourages community involvement through volunteer opportunities and donations. They offer various ways for individuals to contribute, whether through direct participation in the garden or by supporting their wish list of needed items. The farm also emphasizes the importance of addressing not just physical hunger but also social, emotional, psychological, and spiritual needs.
