KITCHEN SOUP PROJECT
Farms to Kitchen to Communities
Distributing produce to stewards of the hearth
Stirring the pot…and providing food to those in need
- The farm provides a large percentage of organically grown, nutrient dense food, both fresh in season and preserved for the long winters.
- As a working farm and permaculture site, Metta Earth Farm facilitates educational experiences in carbon farming, restorative agriculture, plant medicine, and regenerative food systems.
- The farm also regularly offers food to the larger community with a small CSA, seasonal farm stand, small store, occasional sales to local schools and other markets, and seasonal donations to local food shelves.
Stirring soup on the hearth • Stirring happiness in the heart • Stirring hope on the Earth
