Help Us Plant the Seeds for a Greener Future

Hi, I’m Jackie, and I’m on a mission to bring a piece of Alderton’s farming history back to life. Nestled in the beautiful Puyallup Valley, this farm was once a local treasure, known for its vibrant dahlias, fresh vegetables, and a beloved flower stand that supported the community for decades. Now, I’m working to restore its beauty and launch a small farming and gardening business that will serve our community in new and meaningful ways.

Why This Matters

This isn’t just about growing flowers and vegetables—it’s about growing opportunities, connection, and education. By revitalizing this historic farm, I hope to:

Bring Beauty Back to Alderton: With a fresh crop of flowers and a restored garden, the farm will once again be a place of natural wonder for the community to enjoy.

Teach and Inspire Youth: I plan to host agricultural classes for young people in Sumner, Alderton, and the surrounding areas. These hands-on experiences will teach kids the value of sustainable farming, gardening, and caring for our environment.

Support Local Sustainability: By growing fresh, locally sourced flowers and produce, the farm will contribute to a greener, healthier future for our region.

How You Can Help

To turn this dream into reality, I need your support. Restoring a farm and launching a small business takes resources, and your contribution will help with:

Seeds and Plants: To fill the garden with vibrant flowers and nutritious produce.

Gardening Supplies: Tools, soil, compost, and other essentials to prepare the farm for planting.

Youth Programs: Materials and resources to host educational workshops for kids.

Our Goal

With your help, I aim to raise the seed money needed to restore the farm and start this venture by March 1, 2025. Every donation, no matter the size, will bring us closer to creating a farm that’s not only a source of beauty and sustainability but also a hub for community learning and connection.

Join Us in Making a Difference

Your support will not only help restore a historic piece of Alderton but also plant the seeds for a brighter future. Together, we can build something truly special—a place where flowers bloom, vegetables grow, and young minds are inspired.

Thank you for believing in this vision and for helping to make it a reality. Let’s grow something beautiful together.
