Help Horn Farm Rebuild This Year - The Final Stretch!

After three long years, the Horn Farm Center has reached a milestone: Our generous community has raised nearly $1.2 million to repair and transform our farmhouse into an education center. Construction is about to begin!!

Lightning struck the farmhouse in October 2021, damaging it by fire and rendering it completely unusable. Since then, it's been amazing to watch all the love people have poured into the Horn Farm Center. To everyone who has been a part of the journey—THANK YOU!

We are so close to our final goal - our next milestone is to raise the funds we need to achieve our occupancy permit and open the building for daily use. These final phases will transform the restored building into a community hub for learning and exploration.

We need your help to open the doors of our new learning center by the end of 2025!

The Final Milestones We Need to Reach:

✔ Phase 1: Fire Recovery & Design - $316,000 [Complete!]

✔ Phase 2: Construction - $942,000 [Complete!]

▢ Phase 3: Occupancy - $65,000

Help us purchase a new water treatment system, install solar, and pass inspection for occupancy.

▢ Phase 4: Outfitting for Operations & Learning - $50,000

Transform the farmhouse from a building to a fully-equipped learning center. We need appliances, office furniture, classroom and AV equipment to make the space functional for classes and workshops.

▢ Phase 5: Site Work & Beautification - $85,000

Landscaping, including a rain garden and retainer wall, will make the space welcoming and beautiful for visitors. A rain catchment system will help to conserve our water resources for our community gardens and new signs will enhance on-site learning.

Total Raised So Far: $1.2 Million

Total Remaining Costs: $200,000
