Growing Home's mission is to provide job training and create employment
opportunities for homeless and low-income people in Chicago within the context
of an organic agriculture business.
Growing Home's training program
integrates job readiness skills and basic business, health and life skills
instruction into a curriculum focused on growing, marketing and preparing
organic produce.
We offer produce at two farmer's markets within Chicago,
through our Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) Program, at our farm in
Marseilles (please call ahead)and via restaurants throughout Chicagoland.
We
welcome participants, supporters, customers, shareholders and volunteers to
visit our farms and attend our events.
