Growing Farms, Feeding Futures

Increase the quantity and quality of fresh, nutrient-dense food donated to food relief charities. Ensure year-round availability to alleviate food insecurity, with a focus on supporting vulnerable families and children.

Strengthen community ties through a wide array of programs, including workshops, events, and volunteer opportunities. These activities will foster social inclusion, promote civic pride, and reinforce resilience in times of crisis.

Provide impactful education through school-based charity farms and volunteer programs. We focus on teaching sustainable agriculture practices and offering skill-building opportunities that create pathways to employment.

Offer employment to long-term unemployed individuals and farmers, supporting their reintegration into the workforce. This contributes to reducing unemployment while providing meaningful jobs that enhance community well-being.

Develop carbon-negative farms that use regenerative farming practices and climate-sensitive ag-tech. We aim to minimise environmental impact by operating pesticide- and fertiliser-free, aligning with global sustainability goals.

Collaborate with partners to establish a network of disaster relief food production hubs across Queensland. These hubs will ensure preparedness for crises and build a resilient local food system, reducing dependence on traditional supply chains.

Build commercial ventures and form strategic partnerships with governments, businesses, and educational institutions. These partnerships will fund and expand operations, ensuring the long-term sustainability of our network of farms.

Promote the inclusion of First Nations Peoples in all aspects of our farms and charity, integrating traditional knowledge into our education and training programs. We will provide employment opportunities and ensure access to free food for First Nations communities, fostering cultural exchange and strengthening our shared connection to the land.

Because the reality is stark: over 3.7 million households in Australia, including children, are currently skipping meals or enduring entire days without eating. There's simply not enough food to reach those who need it most. We refuse to stand idly by; instead, we're turning to farming as a solution.

Our vision is bold yet achievable: to Build a Network of Charity Farms, with the community at the heart of our mission. With two active farms already established in Samford and Loganlea, we've not only proven our concept but also its replicability.

A network offers resilience and flexibility, especially in times of targeted weather events causing damage. It allows us to grow a diverse range of nutritious foods anytime, anywhere, using various growing styles like regenerative farming, aquaponics, open-field egg production, hydroponics, and more.

We offer unique donation opportunities such as Sponsoring a Bed, joining our Feed Australia Challenge, or purchasing our purpose-driven coffee. Every contribution helps fund our farmers to continue growing food all year round.

We go further as a charity to provide donors of our Feed Australia Challenge the opportunity to Vote which farm is built next, know how much funds we raised and spent and to sit into our live stream operations meetings.

As a charity we primarily work on the good nature of people to make donations to fund what we do and how we do it.

In 2018, Australia raised the largest amount of money ever for a single cause. The 2018 bush fire event. Some of that money has not been distributed and caused a great amount of controversy with the people of Australia.  We have experienced mistrust thinking that we will not direct donations to where they need to go.

So we created our Feed Australia Challenge. A program were we are working to attract 100,000 Aussies to donate a minimum of $3.70 a month to fund a farm a month. What they get for their donation is (1) To vote which farm is built next, (2) to know how much we raised and spent, and (3) to sit in to our live stream operations meetings.

We believe in transparency and inclusion and this world first program delivers.
