Bio

Growing Home is a the first and only high-production, organic farm in Chicago. They operate an employment training program for Chicagoans who have faced employment barriers, and have been operating a social enterprise in the Chicagoland region for over 15 years. Growing Home has worked in Englewood, an underserved community on Chicago’s south side, for over a decade, and believes that urban agriculture, combined with job training through a local food enterprise, can be a catalyst for change.
