Our program specifically focuses on traditionally underserved populations, such as families experiencing chronic poverty and food insecurity. We believe that by providing free access to nutritious food and education on how families can grow their own vegetables, youth and families experiencing poverty will be able to bolster their nutritional, economic, and community health.
Help us serve the South Phoenix community with your donation.
Our Mission
40 Akers is a community food resource organization dedicated to enhancing the food security of South Phoenix youth and families.
Experience
Volunteering is both fulfilling and meaningful. Some families are able to bring home fresh produce after volunteering. Make memories and be educated.
Vision
At 40 Akers Community Garden, our goal is to empower South Phoenix youth and families by offering free, nutritious organic produce and food production education.
Our operations depend heavily on donations to thrive. As of recently, we have obtained 501(C)3 status to expand our mission to empower underserved populations to grow their own vegetables and enhancing food security.
