About the Homeless Garden Project:
The Homeless Garden Project is a 24-year-old nonprofit that practices and teaches principles of economic and ecological sustainability through community classes and hands-on experience on its farm. Located on the Westside of Santa Cruz, homeless men and women receive job training and employment, while producing organic produce. The harvest is then sold to the general public through CSAs. A portion of the harvest is then distributed to other county nonprofits. The garden also has many community and educational programs that teach organic and sustainable farming to people of all ages.
