Charitable Giving at Garden of Eve
We believe in the importance of Tzedakah, giving back to the community that has given so much to us.
Our Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) members donate approximately $500 towards low-income share grants that are made each year, so people of all income levels can enjoy fresh organic food. We match that amount with donations of free shares. If you can provide proof of receiving public assistance and need help affording a CSA membership, you can contact us at farmer [at] gardenofevefarm.com
These are some of the organizations we have supported in recent years with more than $5,000 of donations. Depending on the season, we may be able to donate plants or Fun Fields Passes to your 501(c)3 non-profit charity. To apply for a donation, please fill out this form HERE and email, fax, or mail it to us. We need at least 2 week lead time for donation requests
