Everyone Should Have Access to Healthy Food
Established as a garden in 2014, initial location included 1/3 acre of growing space with a commercial greenhouse. In 2023, we moved to our new location in southeast Rogers where we have become a 1.5 acre farm with a greenhouse and two growing tunnels to allow for more year-round harvests. The fresh produce harvested from Samaritan Farm is cooked and served in our Cafés, and available to clients who shop our market food pantries in both Rogers and Springdale.
17,465
lbs of produce harvested and distributed through Samaritan Market & used in preparing Samaritan Café meals in 2023

HOW THE FARM IS FUNDED
Warehouse479 is a vintage shop that rocks! This mini-shop sells a curated selection of vintage and name brand apparel, accessories, and home goods to help financially support the Samaritan Farm located at the center in Rogers, Arkansas. Your purchases help grow fresh organic produce that fights food insecurity in Northwest Arkansas!
“At the Samaritan Community Center, we believe that our client families should not just have access to food but it should be healthy food of high quality. Those living on fixed or limited incomes often have to purchase the least expensive food items they can find, and these food items are typically not fresh vegetables and fruit.”
Megan Knutson
Farm Manager
