Description:
|
|
|
Growing Home's mission is to provide job training and create employment opportunities for
homeless and low-income people in Chicago within the context of an organic agriculture
business.
Growing Home's training program integrates job readiness skills and basic
business, health and life skills instruction into a curriculum focused on growing,
marketing and preparing organic produce.
We offer produce at two farmer's markets
within Chicago, through our Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) Program, at our farm in
Marseilles (please call ahead)and via restaurants throughout Chicagoland.
We welcome
participants, supporters, customers, shareholders and volunteers to visit our farms and
attend our events.
