Mission

As of March 06, 2017, Humble Farm Refuge, INC. (HFR) is a 501c3 organization with the mission of: Agritourism, place of restoration agriculture and sanctuary for disenfranchised individuals:

Primary focus on:

• Military veterans, disabled, their dependents, widows and orphans.
• Minorities, especially African Americans, Historically Black Colleges and Universities, seniors and singles.
• Disaster preparedness.
  

Goals:
The world would be a much healthier and better place if all its inhabitants advocated sustainability instead of unlimited growth. Rather than trying to control nature and use it as a resource for development, we should revere it, respect it, and work with it.

• Use agriculture as a means of engaging participants.
• Gain a better understanding of “farm to table”.
• Preserve traditions of sustainable living.
• Minimize stress, depression, anxiety.
• Reconnect to self and play an active role in the reconnection process.

Objectives:

• Practice self-sustainable living.
• Nurture social interaction and interdependence.
• Create and offer various activities and programs.
• Provide opportunities for daily practice, creativity and education.
• Use traditional farming techniques integrated with advanced technology.
• Be a place of refuge, especially during disasters.

4) Outcomes:

• Development of more sustainable and self sufficient ecosystems (nutrients and energies cycles).
• More productive citizens with improved economic and social skills and cultivation of more meaningful relationships.
• More stable society with greater appreciation for people, land and resources.
• Commitment to creating a cleaner, healthier environment, community reliance and resilience.
• A society better prepared for disaster relief.

We are always looking for people with skills, who are willing to share their knowledge on a variety of subjects that support our vision. If you have ideas or suggestions, or would like give a suitable presentation or workshop, please contact us..
