Growing a good community.
Orange Home Grown was started in 2009 as a grass-roots effort by a group of Orange, California residents. Their main goal was to bring locally grown, nutrient-dense food to their community. With a lot of grit, determination, and collaboration, the Orange Home Grown Foundation, a 501(c)(3) non-profit was born.
Over the years, different branches of the Orange Home Grown Foundation have sprouted and come to life. These offshoots have fed the local community with opportunities for education and learning, supported their greater physical and mental health, and facilitated connecting and reconnecting with the earth and local community.
Our Mission
At the core of the Orange Home Grown Foundation is the mission of reconnecting people with where our food comes from, while engaging residents of all ages, ethnicities, and income levels in volunteer opportunities, and celebrating the positive agricultural attributes of Orange and its surrounding cities.
