Farm for Better
A community-centered food access program by Carlton Hill Farm
Farm for Better isn’t one of many things we do. It is the thing we do. Our entire farm now operates to make high-quality, locally raised food accessible to local households through a closed-loop system that pairs fresh food with pantry staples.
How It Works
If you want access to pantry goods, you can add yourself to the Farm Pantry list by filling out the short form below. You only need to do it once.
When pantry staples like rice, beans, pasta, canned goods, and any surplus farm products are available, they go to the next household in rotation at no cost.
No paperwork. No proof. No hoops. Just food to people who need it.
How We Stock It
All farm production is focused on feeding pantry households and keeping the rotation moving.
Surplus harvests never go to waste. They go straight into the pantry stream.
Community land partnerships grow exclusively for Farm for Better.
Flowers and other non-essential goods are sold specifically to raise funds for pantry staples.
Donations and community contributions go directly toward bulk purchasing shelf-stable food.
The pantry is privately funded through farm revenue, donations, and surplus production. It operates entirely independent of outside programs or agencies.
Why It Matters
Fresh food comes from the farm. The pantry provides shelf-stable staples and any surplus farm goods. Together, that means local households can cover full grocery needs without barriers or middlemen.
One mission. One system. Every dollar and every inch of ground we grow on working toward the same goal: feeding local families who need it most.
