Growing Community.
Together is better.
That is our belief.
Steadfast Community Growers is a partnership between Vriesland Church and Bridge Youth Ministries in Zeeland, but the reach doesn't stop there. It is our mission to work alongside youth, their families, and surrounding residents to develop healthy relationships while building community.
Mentorship Program
It is our commitment to work alongside the youth from Bridge Youth Ministries wishing to partner with us in growing produce for our shareholders. Proceeds of our CSA Shares will go towards sponsoring those working to participate in camps and special activities throughout the summer and school year to follow.
Students will be on the farm 1 day per week learning and being part of produce distribution as it works for their schedule.
Opportunities on the farm may include but are not limited to: growing, sowing, tilling, weeding, photography, recipe development, small equipment repair, educational classes on compost, beekeeping, and much more! The opportunities are endless as we establish relationships see the need where it may lie to encourage development among our teens.
Leaders and mentors from Vriesland Church are working on a volunteer basis.
