About Natural Bridges Farm by Homeless Garden Project
The Homeless Garden Project (HGP) is a nonprofit organization founded in 1990 in Santa Cruz that provides transitional employment and support services to those experiencing homelessness. The organization has been operating at the 3.5-acre Natural Bridges Farm for over 25 years. The farm began as a sanctuary and refuge, and is now a healing space where our trainees, volunteers, and local community come together to work on the organic farm that grows row crops and flowers. HGP will continue to help people find a sense of belonging to the land and the community. Feel free to visit our farm stand today and enjoy our fresh organic produce. Please visit our website if you are interested in volunteer opportunities in Santa Cruz.
