Mission & Vision

Our Mission

We empower growth and independence through horticulture using the three pillars of action: GROW, BLOOM & THRIVE

Our Vision

Through the transformative power of horticulture, we create meaningful employment opportunities, address community food insecurity, and enrich the lives of adults with disabilities.

Our mission is driven by three pillars of action: GROW, BLOOM, and THRIVE.

GROW

We nurture growth in both plants and people. Our “Core Crew” of volunteers and employees gain valuable job skills, which serve as a springboard to community-based employment, fostering financial independence and personal fulfillment.

BLOOM

We are more than an orchard. We are a place where individuals facing challenges can blossom and flourish. Our commitment to personal development extends to every facet of our Orchard for both our Core Team and Volunteers.

THRIVE

Our mission is to see our community thrive. By offering employment and life enrichment, we create a stronger, more inclusive society.
