Mentors & Partners

As we grow, we have actively sought to meet with and get advice from other leaders in the inclusive agriculture and employment world, as well as with local farmers. Their wisdom and experience with farming in the Virginia and Maryland area and working with a non-traditional workforce will help shape us as a farm and help us find our own unique organizational style.

Red Wiggler has been an invaluable resource for us, as we have worked from a vision for A Farm Less Ordinary, to a reality. They have shared their insight regarding growing our non-profit, how to break down tasks appropriately for workers with disabilities, and what we might expect to experience during our early years. We are grateful for their willingness to share.

We thank the Community Foundation for Loudoun and Northern Fauquier Counties. They do a fantastic job administering grants, organizing the annual Give-Choose fundraising extravaganza, and putting together educational seminars, all of which have benefited locally-based organizations like ours. We are also grateful to the Community Foundation for Northern Virginia, whose donors and staff continue to be supporters of Loudoun non-profits like ours.

We thank St. James’ Episcopal Church for their generosity over the past few years, allowing our Growers to create our jams and pickles in their commercial kitchen.
