Our passionate volunteers make it possible for us to produce and distribute over 15,000 pounds of food annually. The 2.5-acre urban farm is in the heart of downtown St. Louis which includes 48 raised vegetable beds, an orchard, ornamental borders, berries, beehives, rain garden, native plants and more. Volunteers are needed to work alongside St. Patrick Center clients in the therapeutic horticulture and job training programs to help with bed prep, planting, harvesting, market prep, general maintenance and to provide leadership opportunities and increased diversity on the farm.
