Employee Wellness

• Better than the Water Cooler: give your employees a place to chat and share ideas. Working the soil to grow organic vegetables provides a place to do gratifying work, get fresh air, exercise, socialize or eat lunch.
• Fresh Healthy Food: imagine harvesting a bowl of lettuce, or picking a fresh tomato for your sandwich at lunch. We can set up an on-site farmstand and customize the garden to grow employee favorites!
• Learning on your Lunch Break: we offer workshops and presentations for employees on practical organic gardening and food preparation skills. Topics could include:
  • how to start your own garden
  • soil testing, amendments, and specific soil and nutrient needs for different vegetables.
  • gardening through the seasons - overviews of what to do when.

Sustainability

• Food Access:Host an on-site farmstand where employees can buy local organic produce grown at their office.
• No Farms No Food:Support your local farmers by educating your employees about the benefits and joys of local food.
• Preserve our Soil Resources:Keep fertile land in agricultural production. Your office site was probably a farm 200 years ago!

Community

• Support our Produce for Pantries program by donating produce grown at your office to a local food bank.
