In recent years, we have increased production and donations, added a delivery option, and partnered to deliver fresh produce to youth and families in our community. In 2022 the Dream of Wild Health farm team grew over 27,000 pounds of food, including over 7,500 pounds of food that was donated to the community. In March 2020, we purchased an additional 20 acres of land on the same street as our existing farm, totaling 30-acres of farmland. To date, we have focused on improving the soil and designing the space. Our vision for the near future is that this space will allow us to expand our growing capacity, create value-added products and provide more space for our community to learn and grow. 412928 0 3775 Native Youth Education & Leadership - This program provides culturally-based lessons for youth, ages 8-18.
