General Impact:

Park Farm impacted the community by raising awareness and generating interest in urban agriculture while providing people with fresh produce by selling to the community, local restaurants, and donating to food banks. The Farm also will hopefully provide a positive influence on discussions about the benefits and possibilities of urban agriculture. In addition, Park Farm demonstrated organic agricultural practices that the surrounding community could observe and apply to their own gardens. Hopefully, this will inspire new urban Farms to be formed in other unused spaces in the community.

Food Sold:

The Farm was able to sell almost $2,000.00 of produce to the 227 people that purchased produce from the Farmstand. We also were able to sell over $800.00 worth of produce to local restaurants around Reno such as Cafe Deluxe, Pizza Collective, and Thali.

Food Donated:

Park Farm donated 364 pounds of produce (or about $384.50 worth) to St. Vincent’s Food Pantry, as well as 70 pounds (about $123.00) of produce to Food Not Bombs.
