Growing to Give
– Veggies for neighbors in need –
We harness the power of our community to grow organic vegetables and give them to those in need while practicing, teaching, and promoting climate-friendly farming.
Back by popular demand, Growing to Give welcomes you to the 2026 Farmyard Jam!
SATURDAY, JULY 25TH from 4:30 – 8:30 PM
Food trucks. Live music. Games for all ages. Chicken races. We’ve got it all! The Farmyard Jam is more than just a music festival. It’s a celebration of what can happen when a community comes together around good food, local agriculture, and caring for one another.

Testimonials
“
As a volunteer with Growing to Give, I work with an amazing, multigenerational group of people committed to the mission that high-quality produce should be made available to everyone. We work hard while having a lot of fun!
Cathy, Growing to Give volunteer
“
So often, the bulk of our regular donations include produce at the end of its life; what a delight for folks to be able to have firm tomatoes and fresh root veggies that they could store for later use or preserve.

I feel good about the work I do when I volunteer at Growing to Give. I like being outside, using my hands and learning about plants and farming. I enjoy meeting other volunteers and hearing their stories.
