2014 annual report - Grow Food Northampton

2014 ANNUAL REPORT
A homegrown non-profit organization, Grow Food Northampton advances food
security through sustainable community agriculture in the Northampton area.
Owning and operating the largest community farm in Massachusetts, GFN hosts a vibrant
community garden and four successful farm businesses that produce a wide variety of
sustainably grown food.
Our farmland feeds thousands of community members, engages youth in farm-based and
food-based learning, makes land and food and education affordable to diverse populations,
and donates thousands of pounds of food yearly toward local hunger relief.

A Snapshot of 2013
2013 was a huge growth year for Grow Food Northampton! Every program
expanded and strengthened. We doubled the number of garden plots available
at our community garden (FOG) and completed the major infrastructure
build-out of the Garden. We welcomed two new farm businesses onto our
land–Sawmill Farm and Mockingbird Farm–expanding the products grown on
the Farm to include livestock, specialty greens and medicinal herbs. Grow Food
Northampton and our farmers strengthened local food security by:

Financially, we ended another year stronger than the year before, allowing us to
modestly increase staff hours and establish a rainy day fund.
In all ways, and with thousands of volunteer hours, we forwarded our grassroots
vision of a permanent, shared resource that fosters health, community and
resilience. We have all of you to thank for our accomplishments and invite you
to share our pride!
Sincerely,
Lilly Lombard, Executive Director

for mandatory GMO labeling in
Massachusetts.
Food Safety & Modernization Act

Volunteer Spotlight
For this Annual Report we are profiling two Grow Food Northampton volunteers who have a critical role
in helping us meet our goal to increase the supply and accessibility of space for food growing and of locally
grown food. Stephen Mollins plays a leading role in planting and tending the Hunger Relief Plot (HRP), and
guiding and supporting other volunteers who help out. Llama Maynard manages the all-volunteer crews
who deliver fresh organic produce to the Northampton Survival Center, the Northampton Senior Center,
and the St. Elizabeth Ann Seton Soup Kitchen, each week during the growing season.
Stephen Mollins
In 2011 Stephen Mollins was a recent transplant to the Pioneer Valley who describes the energy here as
“palpable as the sunshine and rain that help the garden flourish.” A retired software developer, he was a
gardener without a garden who avidly followed the story of the Bean and Allard farm purchase by GFN.
The following spring he had a plot in the newly created Florence Organic Community Garden. “Then in
April of 2012, Lilly asked me to consider joining the Steering Committee. The mission and actions of GFN
were directly in line with things I cared deeply about: organic food production, food security and local
access to healthy food for all.”
Known as the “Mayor of the FOG” by fellow gardeners, Stephen is a regular presence in the garden, caring for his own plot, dispensing
garden wisdom, and taking the lead on planting and tending the Hunger Relief Plot. “While my work with the steering committee has
been rewarding, it’s my work with hunger relief that has been the most satisfying. The opportunity to work with the interns, gardeners
and other volunteers has been an honor and a privilege. Working with a 5th grade class on a recent field trip was the fulfillment of
a goal I’ve had since I began: sharing the experience with children. It was so much fun giving them direction and standing back to
watch them work. Receiving the thank you notes from the class was the icing on the cake.”

Volunteer Spotlight
Llama Maynard
Grow Food Northampton volunteers know Llama Maynard by her clear, detailed, gratitudefilled instructions to those who deliver fresh, organic produce to the Survival Center, the
Northampton Senior Center and the St. Elizabeth Ann Seton Soup Kitchen each week during
the growing season. Llama got involved in GFN when one of her middle school science students
developed an interest in food justice. A GFN intern visited her classroom in 2011 to talk about
the organization’s vision for the area, and she was hooked.
“I like being able to contribute a small part to an incredibly significant and large collective effort.
The many accomplishments of GFN are astounding to me, and I’m glad to chip in as best I
can,” Llama says. Now Director of Academic Programs at PVPA (Pioneer Valley Performing Arts
Charter Public School), Llama lives in downtown Northampton with partner, stepson, baby, and
the best cat ever. She loves the great restaurants in our area, family vacations to Quebec, camping, the local food Coop, Bikram yoga,
being a novice gardener. An avid cyclist, Llama can regularly be seen biking to the Crimson and Clover Farm with her family on the
bike path from her home into Florence, baby in trailer, passing by the busy and ever-developing Florence Organic Community Garden.
Visiting with C&C farmers and fellow CSA members, taking a walk at C&C to visit the animals and collect from pick-your-own crops,
and “taking as much kale as we can eat in a week (a lot of kale!)” deepens her sense of place. GFN is grateful for the critical role Llama
plays in ensuring that fresh organic produce goes to organizations and individuals dealing with hunger relief.
