Growing Healthier Communities Together

Our Work

We proudly share agricultural knowledge with families across Northern Colorado who want healthier diets, fresh vegetables, and meaningful family experiences.

Community projects have included:

  • Family garden programs in Fort Collins neighborhoods

  • Raised-bed gardens with seeds, soil, and plants provided

  • Educational farming sessions for new growers

  • Multi-family vegetable initiatives in Greeley

  • Programs that help children discover a love for fresh vegetables

When one family learns to grow food, the benefits last for generations.

From Farmers to Business Owners

From Farmers to Business Owners

Now Entrepreneurs!

Building on everything learned during our first three years, the six women who completed the program in 2022 launched five individual projects designed to help us grow as entrepreneurs.

We continued meeting regularly for educational sessions, collaboration, and encouragement as we took the next step into business ownership. Through workshops led by the Larimer Small Business Development Center, we gained valuable knowledge in:

  • Project management

  • Marketing strategies

  • Accounting fundamentals

  • Business planning

You women are on your own now; you are on a lit rocket ship!

Thanks to the continued support of organizations that believe in our mission, we were able to keep growing. Funding partners included:

  • Latino Community Foundation of Colorado

  • Denver Foundation’s Beacon Fund

  • Mighty Arrow Foundation

  • Small Change Women’s Group
