Nestled in the heart of historic Troy, NY, The Produce Project is a unique place. Powered by youth, it engages students from Troy High School in every aspect of its farm business from seed to sale. Youth work after school and during summer break, learning important job and life skills as they earn a stipend and take fresh food home to their families. Sponsored by Capital Roots, the Produce Project is a job readiness program that has increased employment and educational opportunities for hundreds of the city’s young people since its launch in 2009.
The Produce Project manages its 2.75 acres organically, while its two high tunnels provide opportunities for students to work and harvest throughout the year. The farm provides a beautiful and safe space for youth to eat well, work hard and truly examine their potential. Your purchase helps support their efforts to improve themselves and their community.
