Congratulations Growing Urban Farmers Fall Class of 2023!

After a packed 12 weeks, the latest crop of farmer students graduated on December 22.

The Fall 2023 class of Hope Farms’ Growing Urban Farmers worked hard for three months, their days full of field trips, hands on lessons and formal instruction with our team of seasoned farmers, gardeners, chefs and distribution professionals joined by topic experts and leaders in the field of food and regenerative farming.

With the new year dawning, some of these grads are already launching their own micro farms and others are preparing for our Master Classes, like Business 001, that begin next week. Our education crew is reviewing applications and setting the stage for 2024 Growing Urban Farmers Spring and Fall classes. If you ever dreamt of becoming an Urban Farmer you still have a chance to sign up for a course this year—but act now. The Spring class is filling fast.

Learn about what it takes to grow food at scale on an urban micro farm in the Gulf Coast region with hands-on learning, field trips and formal instruction.
