You'll also have the chance to meet some of your local farmers, along with Blue Barn Farm Share Program family members.



Your participation will make a difference in the lives of families and farmers, and will support Blue Barn Farm Share Program’s mission to provide local families in need with no-fee nutrient dense, locally grown food, while also providing local farms market rate for the food they grow.

THE BLUE BARN FARM SHARE PROGRAM


Blue Barn is a 501(c)(3) non-profit founded in 2015 by Hingham's very own Kaysea Hart. Its mission is to support local families and local farms. Nearly 50% of those at risk for hunger in Southeastern Massachusetts earn too much to be eligible for government-provided emergency food assistance, and it is this demographic that Blue Barn seeks to help. As one beneficiary of Blue Barn’s farm share program wrote:


The share is unbelievable. I’ve been trying to work on my own health and the health of my family by eating healthier food but it has been difficult because it’s very expensive to buy organic, local foods in the markets. This is good food. When my kids eat this food they are nourished and they’re full after eating it. I feel like I’m healing them from the inside out.



To learn more about Blue Barn and the great work they're doing on the South Shore, click here! For more information, you can also read this recent article from The Hingham Journal, "Farm Food For Limited-Income Families."


I CAN’T MAKE IT BUT I STILL WANT TO HELP!


Every $800 we raise on this fundraising page will support one local family in need with farm fresh organic food for an entire year! If you’d like to directly support a family in need, you can purchase 1/2, 3/4, or a whole family share through this page -- or -- you can make a donation in any amount - just click “Participate Now” and choose “I just want to help"!


All donations are 100% tax-deductible and Blue Barn Farm will issue a tax-deductible donation receipt to you. Thank you for your support!
