The 170 Farm Stand works to find new ways to introduce people to healthy, fresh, and nutrient-rich foods, in an affordable and cost-effective environment. By providing a space where members of our community can access fresh and local produce, and learn new ways to prepare and cook the produce sold at the farm stand, we are empowering community members to improve their diets, health, and overall quality of life. The 170 Farm Stand also serves as a place where teens can engage in professional development activities and education surrounding the area of food justice. We believe that providing a space where youth can learn about the issues facing their community, engage with the public and build their skills in problem-solving, is crucial to creating a lasting food system in the neighborhood and building generational growth.
We look forward to seeing our community this season!
