Mission Statement
Caring for the earth and our neighbors by organically farming and freely giving fruits and vegetables to people experiencing food insecurity in San Luis Obispo County. NOTE: All farm activities have been adjusted to comply with COVID-19 health protocols to keep everyone safe as we continue with our mission.
Description
Planting Hope: In a world easily divided by clan, creed, practice, status, and politics, Firstfruits Farm SLO is committed to compassion without exception. We foster ongoing partnerships between churches, community organizations, and individuals; in this way, we seek to bridge gaps in our community.
Growing Generosity: We cultivate our crops through our volunteer-run activities that welcome all levels of skill. From children to professionals to master gardeners, everyone is welcome to use their capabilities to love their neighbors as themselves.
Honoring Dignity: We believe that every person is endowed with inherent worthiness. We understand limited income prevents many of our worthy neighbors from access to fresh & nutritious food; this is why we donate all harvests to our distribution partners who serve individuals and families experiencing food insecurity.
