Organization Information
Mission Statement
We are a nonprofit urban and organic farm that models, promotes and educates about sustainable food systems, environmental stewardship, community development and access to good food for all.
Description
We envision a just food system that dismantles the root causes of systemic inequity - racism, colonialism, and other systems of oppression - by fostering lasting connections between people, food, and the environment.
At Zenger Farm we believe that communities thrive when people have a direct connection to their food and where it grows.
The City of Portland entrusts our organization to care for the 24-acres of farm and wetland that make up Zenger Farm. Located in Powellhurst-Gilbert, our neighborhood is one of the most ethnically, racially, and culturally diverse areas in Oregon. Alongside our vibrant community, we continue to bring diverse folks together to access nourishing food, connect with resources, and participate in food and farming education while growing together.
