Mission

To empower refugees to develop sustainable farming businesses that produce fresh healthy food for our community. We operate three key program areas: farmer education, farm services, and enterprise programs.

Programs

1 program

Through our food and hub we connect farmers to fair markets by facilitating sales through pie farm share (also known as community supported agriculture /csa), and at local farmers markets. We support farmers enterprises by providing marketing support and direct marketing services for goods sold through our food hub. We also aggeegate and distribute farms produce to local community, including through food access parners like the houston food bank. In fy 2023 we implemeneted significant improvements within the food hub space, including installing a walk-in cold storage and purchases of other equipment, which is used by pifs farmers network on a weekly basis.
