At House of Hope, we are committed to providing nutritious foods to individuals and families in Martin County. Our farm not only addresses food insecurity but also plays a vital role in reducing rates of diabetes and obesity in our community. Through our food pantries and food partners, we distribute fresh produce to those in need, easing the pain of hunger and promoting better health outcomes.
Currently, Growing Hope Farm operates 92,000 cubic feet of growing space across three greenhouses, raised garden beds, and a fruit tree grove. With two harvest days each week, we anticipate producing over 8,000 packages of produce monthly at full capacity. These harvests not only provide fresh fruits and vegetables but also offer opportunities for clients to gain agricultural job skills and local employment through House of Hope’s workforce development program.
The newest addition at the Farm is our Packing House, which is revolutionizing our harvesting, washing, packaging, and distribution processes, and ensuring efficiency and quality at every step. Equipped with state-of-the-art technology and food-grade standards, the Packing House enhances our ability to serve the community while also supporting local for-profit farms. Through barter or financial donations to House of Hope, local farmers can utilize our facilities, fostering commercial networking and reducing costs associated with getting products to market.
We hope you will take this opportunity to visit us for this open invitation to celebrate innovation, collaboration, and the positive impact we can make together in Martin County. We look forward to seeing you there!
Together, we are Growing Hope for a brighter future.
