Through sustainable hydroponic farming education and food access initiatives we strengthen food security support local farmers and promote community-led agriculture. Village Hydroponics provided fresh culturally relevant produce to underserved communities through weekly free distributions. In partnership with local organizations such as the The Peoples Farmstand and The Peoples Kitchen we distributed approximately 3,000 pounds of produce benefiting 35 families on a weekly basis starting in October 2024 once construction of the farm was completed. This initiative helped combat food insecurity by ensuring consistent access to nutritious familiar foods for New American families free of charge. 21498 25000 In 2024 Village Hydroponics completed the construction and setup of a community-driven hydroponic farm inside a repurposed shipping container. This initiative was made possible through multiple grants supporting infrastructure equipment and sustainable energy solutions. The build-out process engaged local volunteers students and community members who participated in hands-on learning about hydroponic farming energy efficiency and urban food production. As a result the farm now provides a year-round climate-resilient food source for local underserved communities and serves as an educational hub for future growers. 62011 80000 Village Hydroponics provided training and mentorship opportunities for emerging farmers and youth interested in agriculture. We partnered with Randolph Union High School to mentor a senior for their capstone project and collaborated with UVM to offer an internship which resulted in a post-graduate career opportunity.

Similarly we hosted informational tours to 5 local schools 3 other farms 2 other non profit organizations and dozens of community members. We also gave guest lectures at one hydroponic conference and two universities. 10000 10000 No other program accomplishments at this time. 0 0 115000 Nour El-Naboulsi Executive Director 30 0 0 0 Rose Wall Treasurer 3 0 0 0 Prince Awhaitey President 2 0 0 0 Jake Schumann Secretary 2 0 0 0 Zeinab Bulle Vice President 2 0 0 0 false false false false false 0 false false false false VT Rose Wall 155 Saint Peter Street Winooski VT 05404 8024988843 false false false false false false false false false false false NONE NONE true X 0 0 0 45000 93509 138509 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 45000 93509 138509 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 138509 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 45000 93509 138509 1 1 0 0.00 X Part III - Line 12 | Year:, Amount:, Description:| 2020, 0, NA| 2021, 0NA| 2022, 0NA| 2023, 0NA| 2024, 0NA| RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED Doing Business As Names Village Hydroponics Inc Part I, line 16 | Other Expenses:, Amount:| Subscriptions- grantwatch chatgpt freshbooks produce safety course grantwatch squarespace, $659| Meals and Entertainment- Costs for meals with clients business lunches and networking gatherings that support relationship-building collaboration and strategic planning for Village Hydroponics., $77| Repairs and Maintenance- Costs associated with construction upgrades and modifications of the shipping container farm ensuring its functionality efficiency and longevity., $29359| Taxes and licenses- Fees paid for building permits zoning approvals and other necessary regulatory requirements to operate legally within the city., $454| Business insurance- Premiums for insurance policies that protect the organizations operations equipment liability and overall financial security., $2314| Travel- Expenses related to attending a business conference including lodging transportation and associated costs for professional development and networking opportunities., $503| Supplies- Expenses related to purchasing materials and equipment necessary for building maintaining and improving farm operations including tools growing supplies and infrastructure components., $80546|
