the 2023 Purpose Grown Project

First Covid. Now inflation and decreased SNAP benefits. The need for food assistance is rising in the Madison area.

Together we can help!

The 2023 growing season marks Crossroads Community Farm's 4th year of growing organic vegetables with the express purpose of giving them away to low-income households for free.

We aren't just giving away the food we couldn't sell or the food that doesn't meet customer standards. We are purposefully growing vegetables to deliver at their highest quality to those in greatest need. To be low-income shouldn't equate to eating low-quality food. Everyone deserves access to fresh, healthy, dignified food.

Our program is simple.

1) Donors (like YOU!) donate to the farm to cover the costs of growing vegetables for 150 households.

2) The farm grows the produce.

3) The farm works with community organizations, namely Badger Prairie Needs Network, the Neighborhood House of Madison, and Healthy Food for All to get free fresh vegetables directly to households in need.

Please join us in supporting community by donating to this season's GoFundMe Campaign. Thank you!
