At 15th Street Farm, we believe “Good Food” is more than just a meal—it’s a pathway to learning, health, connection, and community resilience. From school gardens to shared community dinners, we bring people together around food, culture, and care—starting with the soil.

Every day, we connect the next generation with the natural world through hands-on learning at our farm and in 17 school gardens across Pinellas County. From preschoolers to college and medical students, young people are discovering how to grow, cook, and share food—shaping a mindset that lasts a lifetime. At the same time, we support families by providing healthy, nutrient-dense meals for expectant and new mothers, with a focus on zip codes 33705, 33711, and 33712.

We’ve built a community-centered and sustainable model through grants, donations, and earned income from farm-to-table dinners, private events, yoga classes, workshops, tours, kitchen rental, and fresh produce sales. But to keep up with growing demand, we need to strengthen our capacity—expanding staff and infrastructure so we can:

Grow our educational programs in gardening, cooking, and wellness.
Provide seedlings, fruit trees, and coaching for backyard gardeners in neighborhoods with limited access to fresh food.
Host more community dinners and farmer networking events, ensuring everyone has a seat at the table.
Expand access to healthy food for women and children—reducing postpartum health risks and reliance on ultra-processed food.
Maximize farm events to increase revenue and long-term sustainability.

Your support doesn’t just fund programs—it fuels a stronger local food system for Tampa Bay. By investing in 15th Street Farm, you’re planting seeds for lasting impact: healthier families, resilient neighborhoods, and a thriving regional food economy.

Together, we can ensure every plate tells a story of nourishment, dignity, and community.
