Who We Are
We sowed our first seeds in 2018 and currently grow a variety of produce across 8 greenhouses, diverse outdoor gardens, and a hydroponics grow house. Our farm also features an apiary and mixed hardwood and pine forest. As a non-profit serving the greater Charlotte community, we donate 100% of our harvest to neighbors who lack access to fresh, healthy food.
Educational Opportunities
Education is central to our mission. We believe that understanding where food comes from, and why food security matters, is one of the most powerful lessons we can offer. Our on-site, hands-on programs serve school groups and neighbors of all ages, covering sustainable growing practices, environmental stewardship, and food security. Together, we’re building the knowledge and skills our community needs to grow food, care for the environment, and support a more food-secure future.
Our mission will always be implementing studied practices and maximizing growth. Our staff is passionate about offering free education services. We enjoy our interactions with current partners and on-site visitors.
Basket Case Farms seeks to provide all members of our community with access to fresh produce and educational opportunities, while promoting and practicing environmental stewardship. We believe everyone has the right to healthy food and the knowledge to grow it and conserve the land it comes from.
