Our Mission:

To GROW and create 100% organic, affordable food and products.

Benchmark:

To Eliminate food deserts through education and application of Grown By Me sustainable food systems.

Grown By Me, LLC. is a privately owned corporation specializing in organic food production & organic commercial products, K-12 STEM/ STEAM programming & curriculum and aquaculture. As Black men and fathers, we understand firsthand the hurdles and difficulties inherent with our diasporic sojourn. Thus, our purpose and vision are to make healthy food accessible and affordable to disenfranchised communities. Through our data supported programming coupled with our commitment to urban communities, it is our intent to eliminate food deserts one child and one community at a time.

Food deserts adversely affect children in those low-income communities with Black and Brown people. Poor nutrition can often lead to obesity, type 2 Diabetes, and learning difficulties that may affect career choice and later earning abilities. As Black fathers, we are concerned about our children’s future, and the future of all children. We want to properly balance and restore the relationship of production and consumption by educating and training the Black community on the benefits of organic food production both personally and communally.
