The GrowHaus

The mission of The GrowHaus is to cultivate community-driven food justice through education and food access. We offer food distribution programming and educational opportunities related to growing and cooking food, as well as overall wellness.

We strive to be a community-driven organization, meaning that our goal is to have all programs led and implemented by members of our community or others from similar neighborhoods. We are successful when the youth, families, and communities we work with are empowered to feed, nourish and strengthen themselves and each other.

Values

Security

The GrowHaus partners with our community to provide opportunities for residents to be both financially secure and food secure.

TEAMWORK

Strong communities collaborate across lines of race, class, and gender. Whether it is with our staff, our neighbors, or our strategic partners, we believe in acknowledging and honoring differences and working together to create a whole that is greater than the sum of its parts.

ACCOUNTABILITY

By tracking and reporting measurable goals towards social, environmental, and economic sustainability, we are committed to holding ourselves accountable to our partners and community. 

STEWARDSHIP

The GrowHaus strives to embody an ethic of responsible planning and management of all available resources. 

WELLNESS

Every person has the right to thrive. The GrowHaus connects people with resources and opportunities to support and nourish overall well being. 

Innovation

Real social change happens at the edge between the ideal and the possible.  The GrowHaus strives to continually push that edge in achieving our mission.
