Ensuring Food Security and Community Well-being
At Teen Start Inc., we are dedicated to combating hunger and improving food security through our comprehensive programs. Our initiatives focus on sustainable agriculture and our Healing Farm project, which not only provide nutritious food but also offer therapeutic benefits to the community.
Sustainable Agriculture
Promoting Self-Sufficiency Through Organic Farming Techniques
Our sustainable agriculture program teaches youth and community members about the importance of growing their own food. Participants learn organic farming techniques, understand the value of fresh produce, and develop skills that promote self-sufficiency. This program helps ensure that families have access to healthy, home-grown food while fostering a sense of community and environmental stewardship.
Healing Farm Project
Therapeutic Gardening for Physical and Emotional Well-being
The Healing Farm is a cornerstone of our food security efforts. It serves as a safe space where individuals can engage in therapeutic gardening activities. The farm provides fresh produce to local food banks and our Feeding Program, ensuring that no one in our community goes hungry. Participants in the Healing Farm project benefit from the physical activity, emotional healing, and sense of purpose that comes from tending to the land.
