Lifeline Deliveries Program
Hellgate Farm has partnered with The Connected Chef and Bench Flour Bakers on a community initiative that will provide delivered grocery boxes to families in Western Queens who are currently affected by the economic impacts of COVID-19.
A large majority of our neighbors live paycheck to paycheck and for a number of reasons, do not qualify for unemployment benefits or government aid.
Our organizations have always prioritized healthy food for all and now is a time when our neighbors need us the most. Please help us provide vegetables to these families in need with a donation.
“The greatest change we need to make is from consumption to production, even if on a small scale, in our own gardens.”
— Bill Mollison (the pioneer of permaculture)
Hellgate Farm is a network of residential and rooftop gardens in Queens, NYC. We wish to promote urban gardening and a permaculture lifestyle within our community, providing opportunities for people interested in these practices to connect and learn, as well as share in the abundance of the harvest.
