SOFA
After seeing increasing health issues during the past few years we were inspired to combat this issue from the root. Thus inspiring SOFA (Suburban Organic Farming in Action) program. Through research, we found that organic food was too expensive. We discovered that growing our own food would be cheaper, easier, and healthier. We would teach them how to farm to lead them to healthier lives so they can " Dare to Soar ". We're set to launch the program in the Spring of 2023!
Parent Café of Dreams

We encourage the community to actively participate in the recovery and advancement of our "City by the Sea".
