PURPOSE
OUR
Mission Statement
ALMA's mission is
to reclaim lives
of persons formerly incarcerated,
repurpose land
into productive urban farms and
reimagine community
as a place for people and plants to thrive.
ALMA in Spanish
translates to "soul."
We grow food to satisfy the hunger of the soul, the hunger for connection. Our urban farms foster connections between people, plants, and places. Most importantly, we grow relationships with the most vulnerable members of our community - disadvantaged children, food-insecure households, and formerly incarcerated neighbors. We feed the soil by growing food. We feed the soul by growing community.
