A farmer’s work is never done, so our farmers welcome your help. Sign up to lend a hand at Hope Farms, our 7-acre urban oasis just south of Loop 610 in Houston. No green thumb is required, just a love of working outside.
We ask that you first attend a Volunteer Orientation to learn more about our work. Please register for the Farm Hand volunteer shift at least 24 hours before the requested volunteer shift so we are ready for you.

Mission Statement
Recipe for Success Foundation is dedicated to combating childhood obesity by changing the way our children understand, appreciate and eat their food, and by educating and mobilizing the community to provide healthier diets for children. Now entering our second decade, we have developed a comprehensive experiential learning program that makes healthy food fun, we promote healthy eating with books, contests and public awareness campaigns, and we work to make affordable, healthy food available to everyone. Our signature programs include national initiatives like Seed-to-Plate Nutrition Education™ in schools, the VegOut! Challenge, farmers marKIDS DAYS and the Eat This! series of children's cookbooks.
Description
WE OFFER PLENTY OF DELICIOUS WAYS for you to help us inspire and empower healthier lives
In Houston, we go a step further in helping parents provide healthy diets for their kids, by training US military veterans to grow fresh affordable produce for their neighbors at our 7-acre Hope Farms urban ag showcase in the Sunnyside neighborhood. We envision a world where healthy eating is the norm and a culture where nutritious food is shared, appreciated, and celebrated.
