Joining our Monthly Giving Program (with any donation amount) is the best way you can support Kindness Farm.
Your generous gift doesn’t only allow us to better plan and budget throughout the year, it’s also a great way to support your community in a hyperlocal, very direct way that’s happening right here.
Our work is only possible with your support. We couldn’t do it without your help.
$25 - Support one child's farm field trip experience!
This year, 986 students have come to the farm on experiential field trips where they've tasted, touched, smelled, laughed, learned, and worked with soil, plants, and each other. Many of the students we work with are immigrants or refugees, and don't have access to this important, ongoing experience in their daily life.
$50 - Provide 30 meals or produce boxes to neighbors experiencing food insecurity!
All the food grown on our 1.5 acre urban farm is provided directly to our community, at no cost, in the form of meals, produce boxes, and free food pantries. This provides important access to healthy, nutritionally dense produce to those vulnerable in our community – something they often don't get anywhere else.
$100 - Provide healthy, nourishing produce for 4 families through free food pantries!
In the last 3 years, we've been able to provide thousands of pounds of healthy produce for over 63,000 meals, produce boxes, and free food pantries. We also grow a large variety of culturally specific foods. A lot of the produce we grow supports families facing food insecurity by providing them with free, abundant access to nutritious, healthy food.
$250 - Sponsor a workshop teaching folks how to grow their own food!
We partner with Portland and Gresham community gardens to provide free experiential learning, regenerative workshops and resources to gardeners. We focus on garden sites that are most accessible to the communities we work with, and work to identify and dismantle additional barriers like transportation and language.
$500 - Support an immigrant / refugee group farm visit!
Farm visits support groups in developing resilience by providing meaningful access to land, teaching them how to grow their own food, providing them with various resources to do so, and fostering a feeling of integration into the greater community.
$1000 - Support an entire class visit to the farm!
In 2023 we've worked with 36 schools and we're looking forward to more in 2024. Our work focuses on schools with diverse student populations, where many students are immigrants or refugees and qualify for free/reduced priced lunches. At our urban farm, kids get to engage with the experience of growing food in a tactile, immersive, meaningful way. They discover the connection between what the earth grows, what they eat, and how they feel, making culturally-specific connections and gaining a deep understanding of the relationship between nutrition and health and wellness.
