Fountain Heights Farms

This new Neighborhood Market and Community Kitchen will expand food access, create local jobs, and strengthen Fountain Heights. We need your support to close the gap! Fountain Heights Farms Cooperative (FHFC) is more than just a Birmingham urban farm—it’s a movement. In a city shaped by resilience and transformation, we are reclaiming land, growing food, and building a future where our community thrives. Everyone deserves access to fresh, local food. Our We All Eat CSAensures that food isn’t just for those who can afford it—it’s for everybody. As the first CSA in Alabama to accept EBT and participate in the Double Bucks program, we stretch every dollar so families can eat well. And for those who need extra support? Our farm stand is always stocked. No applications. No questions. No proof of need. Just community care in action. We’re not just growing food; we’re building opportunity. The Heart of the Farm (Coming Soon!)will be a neighborhood hub, complete with: Acommunity kitchenfor local food entrepreneurs Aneighborhood marketwith fresh, affordable produce Shared spacefor small businesses to grow This isn’t just a farm—it’s an ecosystem. Food is sovereignty. Farming is a skill. Whether you have a backyard, a balcony, or a windowsill, we help you grow. Through hands-on workshops, we teach people how to plant, harvest, and preserve food, turning small gardens into big opportunities. We also provide resources for new and small farmers, ensuring that knowledge stays in the community and strengthens our local food system. Because self-sufficiency isn’t just about food—it’s about power. What started as one small garden in Fountain Heights has grown into 11 thriving farm plots—and we’re not stopping. To truly feed our neighborhood, create jobs, and build a lasting food system, we need 119 farm plots. Every new space we reclaim brings us closer to a future where fresh, local food is accessible to all. From abandoned lots to abundant harvests, we are transforming our community—one plot at a time. Thanks to the support of District 9 Councilor La Tonya Tate, 50 families in District 9 now havefree access to fresh, local foodthrough our We All Eat CSA. This partnership strengthens our mission to ensure that healthy food isn’t a privilege—it’s a right.
