Teens make an impact on the farm and in the community
We believe that everyone deserves healthy and fresh food.
Did you know, over the past five years, food insecurity rates in the state have gradually increased, rising from 19% in 2019 to 37% in 2024. *
The Farm-to-Food Pantry Program (F2FTP) at Friends of Holly Hill Farm was started in 2012 with a goal of growing and donating healthy food for families and individuals facing food insecurity. Today, we grow, harvest, deliver, and donate thousands of pounds of healthy fresh food, herbs, and flowers from the farm to local food pantries. In 2025, we donated 60% more than we did last year (over 7,300 pounds) to seven local food pantries.
We welcome high school students year-round to participate in this critical community program! This hands-on experience includes tasks like making compost, sowing seeds, transplanting, cooking, weeding, cultivating, harvesting, washing, and delivering the flowers, vegetables, flowers, and herbs.
We welcome adult, organization, and business volunteers as well! Click here to learn more about adult volunteering opportunities.

Why volunteer?
Teens gain real-world experience, help solve real problems in the community, learn new skills, make new social connections, and expand their perspective too! The program also enables students to fulfill school-mandated community service hours with hands-on work on the farm too. Volunteers participate in every aspect of the project, from seed to harvest.
