Help us grow leadership and nutritious food this summer!

Summer is around the corner, and the ground is coming to life again. Our youth are outside working hard to grow the nutritious fruits and vegetables our community needs to prosper. And our beautiful new Farm Store is open for business, featuring our home-grown lettuce, spinach and herbs, with more to come! 

Please make a gift to support the work of GTC to build a more equitable food system and grow youth leadership this summer.

Our goal is to raise $20,000 by the end of June.   We know we can do it with your help! 

​All gifts today will be matched by a generous friend of GTC.  Double your impact!
Your gift will support our…
  • Amazing team of 30 youth leaders as they grow thousands of pounds of delicious, pesticide free produce for their neighbors
  • Community-accessible Farm Share (CSA), GTC EATS!, which serves 60 Springfield low and moderate income families, including 25 elders.  Members can even have their produce delivered to them by bike!
  • Beautiful new youth-run Farm Store, providing fresh, affordable, organic produce to the community four days/week and hosting workshops, community building events and cooking demonstrations all season long.

Our heartfelt thanks for supporting GTC and our work to nurture the land, grow strong youth leaders and build a movement for food justice!  Your gifts inspire and humble us, and make it possible for us to grow stronger each year.
