Our Story

Red Wiggler Community Farm is a sustainable farm and recognized 501(c)(3) nonprofit that provides meaningful employment and healthy food for adults with developmental disabilities (our “Growers”). Although Red Wiggler has grown significantly since its founding in 1996, our vision of inclusion has remained the same. From day 1, we have been focused on linking customers to Growers with developmental disabilities through the business of growing and selling high-quality, home-grown, organic vegetables. Today, Red Wiggler is a sustainable farm where people with and without developmental disabilities come together to work, learn, and grow healthy food.
