E3 Fathers Farm and Farmers Market
Mt. Carmel Farmers Market was established to offer fresh, healthy food to the Far Eastside Community. The Father’s Farm which is located on the grounds of Mt. Carmel Church, plants and grows organic vegetables and fruits. The farm is maintained by the members of the church with assistance from the community. The church works in conjunction with hired farmers to prepare the ground for the growing season. Church members, along with community support, work together to plant, nurture, and harvest.
Vision
The church and the Far Eastside community bound together in providing spiritual and physical nourishment for our families.
Mission
Mt. Carmel Farmers Market and Fathers Farm, a joint effort to eliminate the Far Eastside food desert, while also promoting healthy living, by providing access to fresh ingredients for cooking to improve quality of life and wellbeing.
