Joshua Farm
See our story in the Patriot-News!
In 2006, Joshua Group once again expanded its programs for youth in an exciting new direction. The Joshua Farm is an urban farm that grows and sells organic vegetables while providing educational, service and vocational opportunities to at-risk youth.
Joshua Farm is located less than a mile from the Joshua House and Resource Center on land that is owned by the Harrisburg School District, but has been vacant for approximately 20 years. Joshua Group received permission from the school district to use the land for at least 3 years, and secured financial assistance for the start-up costs for the farm from the City of Harrisburg Department of Building and Housing Development and the Harrisburg City Council's Councilmanic grant fund.
