Financial Contributions
Monetary donations help us cover the cost of our ongoing expenses, including:
- seeds and plants
- supplies and tools
- delivery/fuel costs
- events and education
Our farm is volunteer-run and not for profit, but we are not a registered 501c3, so your donations will not be tax deductible.
