Our story.
What started as experiment in South Dallas has quickly turned into a working, scalable, sustainable model of urban agriculture to create jobs growing local organic produce for the Dallas market and the South Dallas community.
For the past four years, we have poured our hearts into this project and our hard work on the ground is starting to blossom. As you know, any grassroots venture takes a combination of passion, dedication, people-power, and funding.
We’re out to build something uniquely impactful and sustainable in the world of urban agriculture and community empowerment.
And we’ve done so with a collaboration between the citizens of South Dallas, entrepreneurs, farming professionals, research partners, tons of volunteers, and with support from amazing people like you!
What People Are Saying.
“What Restorative Farms is doing is radically unique. It is a ground up, economical and sustainable approach that could, if successful, be scaled and applied all over the country.”
— Dr. Anne Palmer, Food Communities and Public Health Program Director at the Johns Hopkins Center for a Livable Future
I get to work with the community. I get to address the food desert. I get to hire the formerly incarcerated. I get to hire people in the community. I get to meet new people, varieties, rainbows, what have you.
And I also get to work with seniors and be able to just provide and give back to the community. Not only in south Dallas but DFW as a whole.
— Tyrone Day, Hatcher Station Farm, Farm Manager
