What Does Abundant Grace Do? Watch this Documentary on their Employment Programming for People Experiencing Homelessness in Action!

Abundant Grace transforms lives through our job-readiness programming: taking people experiencing homelessness to grow and harvest over 20,000 pounds of fresh, organic produce for free distribution to low-income families at our Full Circle Food Justice Program; and to clean up the environment of the beaches and trails of Half Moon Bay on the Coastside Clean Team.  We are doing good, meaningful work together; we are making a difference in our community; we are transforming our very selves. Please be a part of this unique project.  Make common cause with us. We can’t do it alone…we need your participation and support.

Abundant Grace runs twice weekly “job readiness” programs at Potrero Nuevo Farm, allowing those experiencing homelessness to help grow and harvest thousands of pounds of organic produce each year, which are donated to low-income families in Half Moon Bay. Abundant Grace also runs a farm apprenticeship program that includes accountability and mindfulness workshops. In 2021 we added the Conservation Crew that takes participants into the wilderness areas of the farm to work on land stewardship projects and carbon sequestration through teamwork. Additionally, Abundant Grace has a Coastal Clean Team that clears trash from our beaches, and in 2020 opened a WorkForce Development Center to provide resources to folks who desperately need them.

Learn more about Abundant Grace by clicking the link above or at the Bike Hut Classic ride reception on the farm (behind the Bike Hut) on July 30. Eric DeBode, Founder and Executive Director, will be there along with other staff to tell you more about their work and the positive impact it’s having on the Coast.

Thank you for spreading the word about the work we’re doing to address the homeless crisis.
