How does FARM127 work?

We provide housing and other services to 18-22 year olds that have aged out of foster care. We don’t have a farm yet, but we do have a basic process for providing for needs.

Our current model

🏠💵 ➕ 🧍‍♂️🧍‍♀️ ➕ 🧩

Right now, with the help of faithful donors, FARM127 provides support to youth aging out of foster care through:

  • Housing stipends

  • Mentorship

  • Life skills support

  • Advocacy

  • Practical help

  • Partner referrals

  • Christ-centered encouragement and community

What decentralized support means

FARM127 does not yet have one shared place where young adults live, learn, heal, and grow together. Instead, support happens across different homes, apartments, churches, partner organizations, and community spaces.

Why current work still matters ✅

The current model helps meet real needs now. Housing stability, relationships, and practical support can give young adults the breathing room they need to take the next step. Donations to FARM127 will continue to be used to provide these services to young adults.

What’s missing

🏡 🌻 ✝️ 👥 🍽️ 🌱

Honestly, we’re missing the mark. These are the things our young adults really need:

  • Biblical Christian discipleship (teaching dependence on God through seeing it modeled)

  • Daily community

  • Built-in accountability

  • Shared meals

  • Healthy routines

  • Consistent adult presence

  • Healing through working outdoors, creation, and responsibility

  • A deeper sense of belonging

This is where you come in. If you’re reading this and you want to help us build a farm for these young adults, please consider donating to our capital campaign to build this resource to change generations.
