A HUGE thank you to !!🐛

We’re thrilled to share that Ekar Farm has received a generous soil and fertilizer donation from our friends at Hydrofarm! Their support is helping us lay the foundation (literally) for a bountiful growing season and a stronger, more sustainable community.

Hydrofarm’s contribution ensures our plants will thrive in nutrient-rich soil, which means more fresh, healthy produce for our neighbors and the programs we serve. We couldn’t do this without the incredible generosity of partners like them💚

Thank you, , for investing in our mission and helping us cultivate a brighter future!⭐️

While we continue to navigate our site plan and development of our new home at Shalom Park in Aurora, with many costly challenges in our way, this article struck a chord with us. It's time for all urban municipalities to take urban farming seriously.

No water. Pricey permits. Urban farms in Essex County, New Jersey are calling on local governments and the state to make long-term investments in combating food insecurity.
