The Farm Store is Open Every Thursday from 9am-1pm! Come see us and get all the fresh veggies!

Our Mission

Our mission is to work with our community to provide access to healthy food and afford purposeful jobs to individuals with disabilities.

You can support Lynchburg Grows by volunteering, making a donation, or joining our community supported agriculture program. Read more about all our programs below.

Our farmers grow great food on this unique urban farm, using only organic methods. Here's the lowdown on what we do with it.

The Veggie Box: Community Supported Agriculture

More than 200 families share in the harvest all season by becoming members of our community supported agriculture program. Whether you're a member or not, anyone can visit the farm during store hours to buy the produce we're growing. Read more here.

Produce Prescription Program

Doctors prescribe our FreshRx program to patients with diet-related illnesses. We fill those prescriptions with nutrition education classes and fresh veggies for those patients to take home and eat. Read more about the program here.

Food Donations

We donate produce every week to the Salvation Army and other local organizations working to feed the hungry. We also donate CSA shares to Miriam’s House, The Miller Home for Girls, and free produce for patients to pick-up at the Community Access Network clinic, just to name a few of our donation partners. Thanks to our partnership with volunteers from St. John's Episcopal Church, who use some of our greenhouse space to grow food, we donated more than 18,000 servings of produce in 2020.

Restaurants

You can also find our food in delicious dishes at area eateries that support a farm-to-table philosophy. It doesn't get much more fresh and local than produce grown in the heart of the city!
