Jacksonville Park Foundation

The Jacksonville Park Foundation (recently renamed the Greater Regional Opportunities (GRO) Trust) is dedicated to promoting recreation, physical activity, and community-wide health by supporting efforts to change the social and physical environment of Jacksonville and communities across Morgan County. As an umbrella group, we seek to support innovative partnerships like the Mainstreet Farms AGROWhood Initiative, which promotes sustainable urban agriculture and revitalization of vacant lots into vibrant farms, and our new community Orchard of Grace initiative, a collaborative effort to provide fresh produce and educational opportunities. JPF (GRO Trust) continues to cultivate spaces that nourish both the land and the people of the region.
