These values are the foundation of Green Bridge Growers (GBG), a dynamic new social venture based in South Bend, Indiana, that will grow food using cutting-edge, sustainable farming methods such as aquaponics and extended-season harvests. We've launched our venture to contribute to the growing demand for healthy, local food, but we're also a business with powerful impact -- our farm has been created to employ young adults on the autism spectrum, who face a staggering 90% joblessness rate.
Self-reliance...the power of entrepreneurship....collaboration...building the local economy by growing good food and good jobs.
