Open Farms

Over the past 10 years, the Open Farms program has helped us not only nourish our clients, but also nurture the community around us. We are so grateful to the volunteers, interns and staff who put so much love into our gardens. We could not have done this without you!

We are building a community of kindness at Open Arms, and our clients feel that. Each delivery of medically tailored meals sends a message of hope and love to a client who might be isolated or struggling that day.
