buildings, machinery, tools, equipment, and structures necessary for the operation of the physical farm sites.
Chicks Ahoy Farm’s
Farm Committee
The Farm Committee's mission is to enhance the skills, capacity, and resources available to aspiring farmers, conservationists, and environmentalists from youth, women, and BILPOC communities, enabling them to become more effective stewards of wetlands and local natural resources.
Successful systems change for us means: Farming infrastructure is built across urban and suburban neighborhoods.
To advance this mission, Chicks Ahoy LLC and Dee’s Crafty Bees have partnered with farmers, community-based organizations, and financial institutions.
The Fund was established in 2023 by the board of directors of Chicks Ahoy Farm Inc. The Farm Fund's mission is to cultivate capital and educational resources for the increasing number of aspiring farmers encountering obstacles on their path to agricultural endeavors in Connecticut. We envision farming not merely as a collection of skills for self-reliance, but as a means of introducing people to strategies for combating climate change, participating in community-based sustainability projects, and establishing locally owned agri-enterprises.
