Innovations we make to grow more nutritious produce demonstrate the power of our community-driven approach. Over the long-term, we are dedicated to strengthening the three pillars of our work (food access, regenerative organic agriculture, and community engagement) and mindfully expanding our influence throughout the communities we serve. Newhall Fields came into being because changemakers in our community saw an opportunity to grow food with people for people. We can close the food gap by growing food right here in our community that is healthy, culturally familiar, affordable, accessible, and inclusive. Newhall Fields is a SNAP approved HIP certified non-profit direct-to-consumer urban farm. Our community farm includes a 1/3 acre mixed vegetable farm and herb garden on our 2-acre plot on the 17-acre City of Peabody owned Tillies Farm. Newhall Fields produces and regularly distributes high volumes of nutritious food to various sectors of the food system and reaches a significant number of community members through both our distribution and outdoor educational programs-meeting an immediate need. Our down-to-earth regenerative farming produced over 7,000 pounds of food in 2023. Consisting of 40 different varieties of vegetables, fruits, and herbs and 140 varieties of perennial herbs. 80% of our produce went directly to low- to moderate-income families via emergency food providers and farm share produce boxes. We work with hunger relief organizations, senior living facilities, youth and immigrant support organizations, and other community partners to distribute food in the gateway cities of Peabody, Lynn, and Salem as well as Lynnfield. In 2023, Newhall Fields switched from using a fair market value valuation method to a cost basis method for crops. This year we have increased staff and resources. In addition to our full-time farmer, we hired a Youth Crew Leader and nine Youth Crew interns. We are a volunteer-powered farm increasing production by 30% annually and enhancing education, job opportunities, and community engagement. We provide green jobs and hands-on volunteer experiences for youth. We engage community members of all ages and abilities through volunteering, internships, youth programs, field trips, farm tours, and farm-based education programs. This year alone three-hundred community members have volunteered over 2,500 hours of volunteer labor on the farm. Forty skilled community members share their knowledge, expertise and donate their time and talent to manage the operations, administration, and financials of this nonprofit organization, donating over 2,000 hours. In addition, Newhall Fields is a weekly job training site for twelve Northeast Arc clients and their staff leaders. This spring and fall our Saturday high school program successfully engage 37 high school students who learned sustainable agriculture for a total of 200 hours. 80% of the students come more than one time. 50% of these students came five times or more. A fully funded summer Youth Crew internship program benefiting ten young people from underserved households earning wages plus transportation services as needed. These programs provided students with the opportunity to be in person with their peers learning, leading, and growing in a safe environment. Newhall Fields has been awarded federal, state, and local grants to expand acreage in production and support programming, host a variety of on-farm programs, leadership trainings, and summer internships. Newhall Fields top three grants include: VanOtterloo Family Foundation, $20,000, provides support for our summer Youth Crew program and general farm operations; the $9,286.55 MassHire YouthWorks F1rstJobs grant provides the funds to support our Youth Crew interns and their leader; and the New England Bio Labs Grant of $7,500 provides support for our new eco-friendly customized container shed to be installed in 2024. * 36787 JEANNETTE MCGINN PRESIDENT 16.00 0 0 0 BETSY LAHIKAINEN VICE PRESIDENT 6.50 0 0 0 STEPHANIE JOHNSON CLERK 5.00 0 0 0 DIANE DUBE TRUSTEE 4.00 0 0 0 JOSEPH SCHUELLER TREASURER 5.00 0 0 0 CHESTER GRAHAM MEMBER 4.00 0 0 0 false false false false false false false 0 0 false false JEANNETTE MCGINN 8 PARK STREET PEABODY MA 01960 9785313587 false false false false false false false false false false false NONE NONE true X 0 0 10405 12577 69410 86684 76393 255469 0 253 412 4718 3177 11812 20372 0 10658 12989 74128 89861 88205 275841 0 0 0 275841 275841 1.00000 1.00000 0.00000 0.00000 X Pt III, Line 31 The three capital improvements including two greenhouses, a welcome kiosk, and a three-bay sink provided the resources for Newhall Fields Community Farm (Newhall Fields) to increase participation, production and direct-to-consumer sales to our most vulnerable and insecure families.
