JK Community Farm

The JK Community Farm is a 150-acre working farm practicing regenerative, sustainable, chemical-free four-season agriculture, and growing solely for the food insecure.

The Farm donates its yield in partnership with Loudoun Hunger Relief, Food for Others, Arlington Food Assistance Center, and DC Central Kitchen and works to increase access to fresh produce and protein to the food insecure through educational programs in alignment with the Virginia standards of learning to educate students on nutrition and agriculture. The Farm provides a complete self-guided field trip curriculum, which includes community gardening activities, and opportunities for parents/caregivers to learn alongside their children at the farm.

With a staff of 3, our farm is operated primarily with the help of volunteers who join us for all planting and harvesting. hosts over 4500 volunteers annually, the majority as corporate team-building events from companies throughout the northern VA region, After harvest, the food grown at the JK Community Farm is picked up by our food pantry partners for immediate distribution. Harvests are picked up daily to ensure the food is reaching families as fresh as possible.

Volunteers: Our volunteers have the opportunity to learn a wide range of gardening skills, such as planting, harvesting, weeding, composting, and basic construction. We need your help and welcome volunteers of all ages to get involved. Volunteering at the JK Community Farm doesn’t require any previous farming experience, as our staff will train and educate you on healthy food systems along the way!
