Gettysburg Gateway Micro-Farm
The Gettysburg Gateway Micro-Farm is located on the grounds of the new
men's Gateway shelter at 1921 S. Gettysburg Ave. Gettysburg Gateway Micro-Farm will:
- generate transitional employment with paying jobs, productive
skills, meaningful activity and self-esteem for the growing number of
homeless adults currently residing in our community's Gateway emergency
shelter system
- produce permanent community-based employment opportunities
post-shelter through relationships with local farmers
- yield fresh, healthy, affordable locally grown produce to the
local neighborhood and larger community where such products are in short
supply

construction to harvest, check out our
