SEEDS of HOPE The Atlantic City Rescue Mission Farm builds community and it restores hope for the homeless. Nestled in Cape May County, this 3-acre farm experienced many firsts this year from the introduction of chickens, bee keeping, and the drilling and installation of water wells. We hope to double our harvest of vegetables from last season.

All produce is used in the Mission’s kitchen to make 650 meals each day to feed the homeless. Church groups, families and neighbors are invited to spend a day on the farm and help our area’s homeless begin to cultivate a brand new life. BOOK YOUR MISSION EXPERIENCE ON THE FARM BY VISITING bit.ly/SEEDSofHOPE or calling 609-345-5517 today.
