Donations Help Fuel Our Mission
We believe that our efforts will strengthen the community in regard to food security, caring for the local ecosystem, and emergency preparedness. We hope you can help us.
Our mission is to improve the food security of the local population. We want to grow as much food as possible.
This produce is to be distributed following a thirds model: 1/3rd sold at market price, 1/3rd sold at discounted price for those who qualify (SNAP, WIC, etc.), and 1/3rd donated to food pantries.
This model aims to allow for the Backyard Farm Collective to best serve everyone in the community for years to come.
Your donations are very important to this mission. Here is how the funds will be most immediately be utilized:
- Starting and Running the Monrovia Community Garden
- Canning Supplies
- Gardening Tools
- Transportation costs associated with Compost Collection

How We Will Accomplish Our Mission
Education: Hosting free or affordable educational classes taught by experienced and knowledgeable people, hosted by BFC at our beautiful Monrovia Indiana location. These classes could include building a successful raised bed in your backyard or identifying which "weeds" to keep and which to eradicate in your backyard.
Collaboration: Working with whoever is willing to contribute so we can maximize our community impact. This could be in the form of Community Gardens, Farmer's markets, or tool & supplies donations.
